Drop-down list of users
« on: June 07, 2016, 10:29:57 pm »
As code refactoring continues, I've enhanced the mechanism by which the user can be specified for the main overall stats page for a user:

http://tm.teresco.org/user/

As before, you can specify user with the u= query string parameter and it's remembered in a cookie once you do that, but the free text input field has been replaced with a list of all travelers who had at least one clinched segment somewhere in their list file.

I tried it out quite a bit and was confident enough to put it right onto the main site.  It could certainly still have problems, so please let me know if you notice any.

I plan to do the same with other pages, where system lists and region lists will be drop-downs as well.

Everything looks and works fine for me.

Thanks. I don't like that the "Select User" button must be pressed...
I'd prefer data to be loaded when clicking on a user or pressing Enter.

Yeah, just like the old CHM.

For consistency across the pages that now share the code for the generation and handling of the user dropdown, I'm going to leave it as is for now.  What I don't want to happen is on those pages where there are multiple things to choose, I want the user to be able to choose them all before regenerating the page (which for users with lots of travels can be pretty slow in some cases).
