Hiya echicken...

I'm playing with ftnnv.js to see what I can do with it. Right now it's only seeing the Fido nodelist.* file which I am assuming is possible by the following:

// The paths to your nodelists
var nodelistPaths = [
"/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/nodelist.*"
];

My question is, how do you add more nodelists from different FTN networks. I tried adding another: '/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/sportnet.*" before the closing ] but
I am getting this error:

!JavaScript c:\sbbs\xtrn\ftnnv\ftnnv.js line 10: SyntaxError: missing ]
after e lement list

!ERROR compiling c:\sbbs\xtrn\ftnnv\ftnnv.js

The sysop has been notified.


Can it be as simple as just adding sportnet.* separated by a comma on that
one line?

Appreciate the help...

Thanks..

Be sure not to mix up your double and single quotes. That should be '/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/sportnet.*' or "/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/sportnet.*".

nodelistPaths is an array of strings. Elements in the array should be separated from each other by commas, and all elements should be enclosed within
the square brackets, eg:

var nodelistPaths = [
"/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/nodelist.*",
"/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/sportnet.*"
];

Keeping it on one line isn't important, though.

I assume that will work, but I no longer have a copy of that script on hand. I'll write a new version soon that uses the nodelist parser Deuce provided, and

uses a config file to make things like this easier.

And on that note, if you or anyone have a wishlist for things they would want to see in a nodelist browser, please let me know.

OK.. I saw my error and it the explaination was right in the readme file. My eyes are getting old.. lol!

var nodelistPaths = [
"/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/nodelist.*",
"/sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv/sportnet.*"
];

OK.. I'm anal about neatness though. Each nodelist has it's own line. :)

That it did.

One thing I did see that it didn't like looking outside it's own folder for the nodelists. I put a normal path to replace the /sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv and although it compiled.... it didn't show a damn thing. I had to copy over all the nodelists into the /sbbs/xtrn/ftnnv folder.

I'm sure I'll think of things as that day gets closer.

Thanks again...
