Change Inputs to Text #13

Closed crazedsanity closed 10 years ago

crazedsanity commented 11 years ago

The input tags can be switched to divs or spans instead.

Changing inputs to text means it's much easier to do colorization of alternating rows, which would it easier to see what fields belong to a particular weapon/armor/skill; a piece of gear might have an extra long explanation, which would be more readily visible instead of being obscured by an arbitrarily-sized input field; same with feats/special abilities. The system could automatically link items, weapons, etc to informational pages (e.g. "Two-Weapon Fighting" could link to the feat description on d20srd.org).

This would also fix problems with browser caching. Browsers really like to cache values on forms, and with a standard character sheet having 400+ inputs, it's pretty easy to have stale information. And there's only so much I can do to keep it from happening.

It may not be necessary to convert all inputs into text, but it would definitely be nice when it comes to coloring alternating rows. Just a thought.

Still need to implement this for armor. There is currently no way to modify the attribute associated with a skill after implementing this.

implemented in 0.7.9 (or before).
