I still would like to know what measures will be taken for those without javascript enabled. As of right now, the way it is set up all the changes you made mean that it is literally impossible for someone without a javascript-enabled browser to see the GameCube controls. Also, there need to be alternatives to the combo box just to make it look more aesthetic. I actually have something in mind for each of them, although it would require a new parser function (which would be easy to code and is cache-safe) and some extra js. If you could come onto IRC, I could explain it a bit better. --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig2}} 16:12, 24 February 2008 (CST)

::I've got a working prototype of it [http://cabal.exofire.net/wiki/Testpage here]. You can use the selector to change it, or you can go to, say, [http://cabal.exofire.net/wiki/Testpage?tog=1 this] to change it based off the URL (will allow those without js-enabled browsers to still toggle between the things). Still working on an alternative method to the combo box, however, but that's just an aesthetic issue. --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig2}} 19:51, 24 February 2008 (CST)

:::That looks good Ryan, and I'm sure it could be modified to include our plans to store the user's choice for each guide in a cookie. Why do you think the combo box needs replacing though? It's a suitable form element, and while it does need a label adding, I see nothing else wrong with it. --[[User:DrBob|DrBob]] ([[User_talk:DrBob|talk]]) 00:50, 25 February 2008 (CST)

::::I'm not saying it needs replacing, it's just that sometimes an inline element would be more suitable than a right-floated combo box. Not sure when though, so it's a low priority, plus the current code works very well. --{{User:Ryan Schmidt/sig2}} 15:09, 25 February 2008 (CST)
