This is all I see, so unsure where to "enter 30 for level"... am I missing something?

That means the Javascript code (which is necessary since wikis don't let you add form fields) isn't working. Unfortunately I don't have access to an Internet Explorer machine, but if anyone does and can report back any error messages I can hopefully fix it.

As an aside, normally when I program I use tools to help avoid this sort of issue, but the wiki limits things in a way that makes using those tools difficult.

I love this! The wiki is my bff.

Great idea. Once it gets some more polish it would be great. I searched for level 40 mobs and a whole bunch of player magelo pages came up.

That's the red server search [You must be logged in to view images. Log in or Register.]

I see that same page from my work PC (uses IE), but there are no error messages. Just loads like a usual page.

Thanks.

Based on that I'd guess that the people with problems are probably on IE8 (there was a big change between IE8 and IE9; basically Microsoft stopped being assholes and started playing by the same rules as everyone else) ... but that browser has such low usage now I'm kind of surprised that multiple people would have problems, so I figured maybe it was affecting all IEs.

Both my laptop and computer at work uses IE11. Neither shows the wiki page correctly. While on my laptop (and PC) I can use Firefox, at work I'm stuck with IE.

Here's instructions for getting errors on IE11:

I realize it's a hassle, but if anyone wants to bother and paste the error messages here I'd be happy to try and fix them. It's just that without knowing what the actual problem is it's difficult for me to fix it.

This is great, thank you!

Would it be possible to add an HP range search as well?

Short answer: no. First off, a healthy percentage of mobs don't even have HP info, but more importantly the limited Mediawiki search can't search for ranges, it can only search for exact strings. So to search for "between 100 and 200 HP" you'd have to search for "HP: 100 and HP: 101 and HP:102 and ... HP: 200".

The slightly longer answer is that it absolutely would be possible to do something like that with a custom MediaWiki (PHP) extension, much like how Rahvin created our custom item searches (the ones you see when you look at rogue arm slot items or whatever). However, unless you happen to program in PHP and feel motivated, it's unlikely this will happen, as Rahvin is retired and I hate PHP with a fiery passion [You must be logged in to view images.

I don't know if this helps any (not at all familiar with debuggers), but in "load.php" the debugger in IE11 says "Object doesn't support property or method 'startsWith'" for the following statement:

$(function(){var hideDelay=0;var trigDelay=250;var hideTimer=null;var ajax=null;var currentPosition={left:'0px',top:'0px'};var container=$('<div id="itemHoverContainer">'+'<div id="itemHoverContent"></div>'+'</div>');$('body').append(container);var $mouseoverTargets=$('span.ih a');var isItemCategory=document.title.startsWith('Category:')&&document.title.includes('Equipment - Project 1999 Wiki')&&!document.title.includes('Worshiper Equipment');if(isItemCategory){$mouseoverTargets=$ mouseoverTargets.add('.mw-content-ltr a');}
