Hi

I am a new member, so I apologise for my silly question.

I want to know if it is possible to edit how a website is displayed on y screen.

the following link is a of a page that contains greyhound data, the default page is 50 lines per page, I want it to display all data per page and if I change the greyhound name, again all data is on 1 page.

thanks for the help, I am not sure I am in the correct area of the forum, so again I am sorry if I am.

I appreciate all feedback.

Posting your url does not help. Your page appears to be generated server side (PHP?). That is the code we would need to see.

The page has a dropdown at the bottom that lets you change how many items should be displayed at the time. Only it doesn't work for me.

I'm not sure what you are asking. Do you want to change how the page displays when you view it yourself or do you want to show it in an iframe or something like that on your own site and change how it looks? If it's the latter, you can't.

I think the OP wants to change or remove the default of 50 items per page, and instead display all available items on a single page.

That I understood. I don't understand if he wants to do it in an iframe on his own site and so forth.

Really, if you have access to the source file then it could be as simple as changing a variable to display more items at once. Somewhere there is a variable that is set to 50 right now. All you need to do is change that variable to some big number (like 1000) and then it should work as you want.

Hi all

thanks for the replies.

Basically I am collecting data in excel with vba.

what I would love is to be able to change the default 50 lines to say 1000 so I can web query to collect the data.

I think Christian J hit the nail on the head.

Well, it looks like the change link causes a hidden form to be submitted. If you manage to untangle all the mumbo jumbo in the source, maybe you can get something you can use.

BTW the change link sort of works with FF, but sometimes I get a long list of errors instead.
