Title: View Aircraft concept
Post by: StephenM on September 03, 2007, 07:02:10 pm: Hi all,

This is work in progress. It has a few new features on it, some of which are not featured in this shot and as I am typing I'm wondering why I ever choose this particular one. :P Anyway, can I get general feedback on it? How do you think it looks, layout etc?

Agree.

Looks good in general Stephen. Would be nice to see the monthly lease cost on this page as well, and perhaps the lessor's name?

Not sure how much history is kept on each aircraft in the database, but it would be nice to see the leased aircraft's previous operator's history.

It would be like real world where Alitalia 777's have Irish registrations on them. ie The owner registers I'm afraid.

We dont have the resources to create our own. And I am smarter than "Ripping stuff off", I always ask for copyright permission first. ;)

Do you have a Google Toolbar?

yes

Google Toolbar has a function known as auto-fill, which allows you to save info such as preferred username, telephone number, address etc on Google Toolbar's form, and it will highlight fields in yellow when auto-fill knows it can fill that stuff in. If you then click on auto-fill, it will automatically "fill in" the data you entered.

This isn't designed by the creator of the web page, Google Toolbar's just too friggin smart and can figure these things out too well.... you can disable this altogether by heading over to Options/Settings on your toolbar and disabling the colouring of the fields auto-fill can fill in.

Post by: StephenM on September 13, 2007, 10:45:28 pm: Basically thats just a "token" we have the data for countries it was just a matter of putting together formula to automatically register planes, there was a post about that up in the other general chat.
