[edit] reverse order of the confrences

Am I the only one who thinks the confrences should be listed with West on the left and East on the right, so it's kinda like looking at map? Gentgeen 00:02, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

  • The East-North-South-West order is the same one that is listed on all official NFL publications, including the 2005 NFL Record and Fact Book. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 00:05, 20 July 2005 (UTC)

[edit] NFL on Christmas Day

Why was that deleted? Why did it warrant deletion? I don't know why it was, so that is why I ask. Thanks Soxrock 01:50, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

According to the deletion logs, the answer can be found at Wikipedia:Articles for deletion/NFL on Christmas Day. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 01:52, 30 March 2007 (UTC)

[edit] Collapse problems

This has come up before and was inquired on User talk:Psantora to no avail. There is a problem where the first time "Show" is clicked the template does not expand and rather just wraps to the next line. Pats1 00:32, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I added a "width="100%" attribute to the table. Seems to work on Firefox, but could you test it on other browsers? Thanks. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 02:03, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
Having the box span the entire width of the page is the only way it will work correctly. Similar attributes are also in Template:Navbox and Template:Navbox generic. If you do not want the box to span the entire width of the page, you cannot have the collapsible (show/hide) feature. Cheers. Zzyzx11 (Talk) 02:09, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
I have FF too, but I'll check it in IE. For some reason it changes from article to article as well. Pats1 02:19, 20 August 2007 (UTC)
Looks good. Pats1 02:21, 20 August 2007 (UTC)

I haven't seen the problem you are talking about with the template not expanding all the way, however there is a problem with using "width:auto" and the collapsable template as when the template is hidden it shrinks to the width of the title instead of the normal width of the template. I have started some discussion about this here. PaulC/T+ 23:14, 21 August 2007 (UTC)

It's fine now. Pats1 23:54, 21 August 2007 (UTC)
