The Target

[Chippiewill]

Could it be updated to go up to £1000 to see how far it gets?

[Samantha]

I think that would be nice to know because I remember donating just after we reached the target I would love to see how far we are at. :)

Or maybe a script that could be added to it, which could digitally display the running total.

Yeah, that'd be really simple tbh.

[Inseriousity.]

£750 would be a better number imo but yeah defo raise the bar :D

[Sharon]

I don't think it should be £1000 though as it would look like we failed a bit as our target was only £500 in the first place - maybe just it saying at the bottom what the current total is.

Do we have anyone that actualy knows what to do now Jamesy has left? J/S

Considering it was David who actually made it work and what not, then yes. I'll see what I can do but I'm not going to promise anything yet!

Anyone who knows basic PHP/HTML can probably work out the current code, showing the current total neatly would require GD knowledge though.

Edit: It's all HTML with a small php snippet to set the variable for the bar I think. I am appalled at the coding, David used tables :(.

If you re-linked it rather than leaving it static it would be fine to me as then I can work it out instead. Some people might prefer a pretty way to find out though.

I've been talking to David and he believes the total has not been updating automatically. The only person who can tell anyone the real total is Jin at this present time.

It stopped soon after it surpassed five hundred, Jin probably stopped it because there's no need for it to increase.

It actually went past it but then went back at 500. But gives us a few more minutes for a final conclusion on this!

[xxMATTGxx]

After looking at it more with David and also thinking about that our target was and is £500. Maxing it out even further signifies that we have reached our 2010 goal of £500. It is also trivial updating it at this time because the promotion is going to end very soon, I'm sure everyone can wait some more days then you all get to see the lovely total.

[AgnesIO]

I assumed somebody stopped the total on purpose.

Once it had reached £500 the thrill of finding out the final amount would be ruined if you let people check it for themselves constantly! I think it looks good to new members that we have hit nour targetg too!

[Sureall]

I agree with milestone, when everyone found we had hid £500 the thrill was great because when we started it looked way to high (to me anyway) I think people could keep donating but as Milestone said, it will be good to show we reached our target!

[Eoin247]

I'd rather have a bit of a nice surprise with the end total , so i agree with milestone.
