printable version of topic

[Demarest]

I'd like to be able to save this topic to my hard drive so that all data within the topic can be display on one page for easy searching. I thought maybe clicking on "print this topic" would arrange all the data on one page for me. Sure enough it did... through page 15. But it's a 38 page topic.

 

So I guess my first question is: What's preventing it from displaying everything? I would assume it's some perceived spooler limitation, but the fact that it cuts off at EXACTLY the end of page 15 makes me wonder if it might be something in the page code. Not sure.

 

Anyways, I tried going to page 16 thinking maybe if I told it to print from there, I'd get the next 15 pages. No dice as it just diaplays pages 1 through 15 again. So does anybody have any ideas? OR instead, does anybody know where all the data of current known VC memory addresses resides? Thanks to everybody for their time.

I don't know why it wont work for you, Dem. Works fine for me. I'm using Firefox 1.0.1.

 

Anyhow, saved, and I emailed it to you.

Nevermind, lost your email. Gimme a shout, and it's yours.

Lazy IPB bastards, basically, but if you want to get technical, this:

 

$max_posts = 300;

 

 

and this:

 

SELECT * FROM ibf_posts WHERE topic_id='".$this->topic['tid']."'".  " and queued !='1' ORDER BY pid LIMIT 0, ".$max_posts

 

 

 

There's no artifical limit now though, just be prepared for ginormous printable pages...

If that's in /sources (topics.php for example), the file can be edited, no?

 

Or can you query the SQL Database to raise the max posts?

Yeah, but now I can't even see printable pages. They come up as blank screens.

You know, vALKYR, if you remove everything from LIMIT and beyond in that query, there is no limit of how many posts it will load.

 

FUNNY ISN'T IT? CAUSE IT'S CALLED "LIMIT".

 

Ahahaha. That made my day.

 

I am very sorry for acting like a retard in the previous two lines, but it happens everyday. Sadly.

 

EDIT: Another funny thing about the print pages, why are the posts coloured the same way? It looks horrible on white.

Thanks. Size is cool. Wasn't fixing to print it. Just now I have a single file which will make searching for particular functions/features/addresses a breeze in comparison.

You mean my concussion made your day? Apology accepted though <3.
