Default Re: New weapons help document & HTML template

raynor, here's the weapon component html index. Just a few notes on it:

1) I included the SE4 Version number in there so folks can see what Version the document was created from. If you can turn the Version into a variable and pull the latest one from the top of the history.txt file that would be great.

2) I created the weapon links entries as two columns and only created the first 6 entries to establish the pattern for you. You can use whatever order you want to populate the tables. Probably just listing them in the order they come in from the data file would work fine. They're probably in order by Family or Weapon family in there anyway.

3) I made the index page title a link to the botton of the list and put in some brief "about this document" info and a Version number there. Feel free to change anything there or add stuff as you see fit.

4) I wanted to ask if you thought it might be better to create the index file in the same directory as all the other html files or instead stick it in the top directory all by itself and put all the other html files in a subdirectory beneath that. Your choice on that, whatever you think best.

5) There's a message right below this one that describes a very minor glitch in the first template for the Weapon Family entry.

Thanks again for helping with this little project. It's been a lot of fun playing with the html and I think its turning out even better than I thought it would.

If this utility is well recieved, what do you think about us extending it later on to handle the rest of the components as well?
