Bill,

If I row a set of, say, four intervals I'll log them as five entries. One for each interval with the split time / split number of metres (I note the rest time in the comments). Then a fifth entry with zero time and the resting metres (I've rowed it; it's my energy that created it, I'll log it).

That's getting a divide by zero error when you try to calculate the 500m split.

Thanks for doing this, nice change to the logbook.

Might I suggest some client-side goodness for sortable tables: http :// kryogenix. org/ code/ browser/ sorttable/ (remove all the extra spaces... How long until I can post URLs???)

Wikipedia has even included this on their sites and in the MediaWiki release... if it's good enough for them, it should be good enough for most applications. Right? :)

Above the message box there are a list of codes running from the left (starting with B for Bold text) to the right ending with URL.

Click on URL add your url address then click on URL again to close.

Or you can type: address.

No... I mean the system will not let me post URLs. If I try, I get an error saying that new users can't post URLs.

Ok sorry.
An anti-spammer measure in effect perhaps.

By now, you probably can. You are eligible after you have sent a certain set number of messages, but I don't remember how many.

Even a first time poster can get around it by using a simple disguise for the URL. That sounds like it might defeat the purpose of avoiding spam, but a spammer isn't likely to go to that sort of trouble. It is usually a one shot message and, likely as not, is mass produced by computer.

While posting my meters, I discovered the meters can be entered with no time.

I like to enter my meters once a week, which makes it easier to compare one week to another. When there's a ranking distance for time, then I subtract that distance from the total.

It is sooo much easier to not have to enter a time for each day. :)
