I know someone just made an app that does this, and I know there are other ones out there, but this is updated and designed specifically for halomods. Tell me what you think.
http://voodoo721.googlepages.com/halomods.htm
If halomods would like to make this official, they can just copy the source. Just dont take credit for it, anyone. Thanks.
Also this works best with firefox, and is untested for safari.
This detects whether you have ie or firefox and brings you to the pages that works best with that browser. It is still untested for any other browser and hence (netscape will bring you to the firefox page, so it may or may not work) you have to choose which one you want to try.
Also for the download, start with index.htm.
Updated on October 8th, I added one for Mimesis.
Updated on October 15th, added halomaps and halopatch

Yes perhaps make it so we can download the .html file. Instead of looking at source in Mozilla or ie.

Hmm works for me, this is a clever idea instead of using the Mimesis one, this goes right and will give people a more clear idea of your mod and such, VERy nicely done i wil use it all the time i post

Well ive saved the source of this as im putting it on my site. And ive put it in so far. Its all going to plan and im fixing some little bugs up and customising it. But one question is how would i go about changing the border and contents inside the table?

You don't HAVE to download anything. If you want to save the source incase something happens to my website or you want to use it offline, it is simple to do. Either view the source and copy it, or go to file and click on save page as.
if it is not working for you, then it might be because you are not using firefox. I have not tested it for Internet Explorer, Opera, or Safari.
I will do that right now, though, to see how it goes.
And thanks for the comments. If you have any suggestions, find bugs or something that needs to be fixed, please post it here. I will look into the ones that have already been posted.
The contents in the table (hopefully you are talking about the tables at the bottom of the page) are changed whenever a text area or radio button it chosen above. To edit what happens when they are changed, you have to find the textarea/input and edit where it says onchange=. Everthing after the document.getElementById('').innerHTML = is where the actual content takes place. If you want to add stuff before the value, add things into the ' ' before the + this.value. To add things after, add stuff to the ' ' after the this.value +.
It is hard to explain, and if you don't understand try going to
http://www.w3schools.com . That is where I learned everything
Also can you show me the bugs you fixed, so I wil update my version as well? Thanks.

I know people don't HAVE to download it, BUT... all threads in this forum MUST have a download, now, this may be an exception 'cos it's somewhat brilliant, so can we have approval/denial from a mod or admin as to whether this is allowed, with no download?

Cool, people probably won't download it, 'cos they don't need to, just didn't want your topic getting deleted, and one again, good job on this.

Im making it compatible for ie and mozzila. ANd i know how to edit what shows up in the box was i was curious about is how to change the bcakground colour of the box and the border of it.
Also if you want it to work in ie. Only a few checkboxes work. So if u want to fix this make sure for each checkbox that the input name is different to the input id.

Thanks. I changed it so it is ideal for firefox, but does not work for ie. I know that might annoy some people, but the majority of the people use ff, so hopefully it won't be too much of a problem.
