• Which the release of FS2020 we see an explosition of activity on the forun and of course we are very happy to see this. But having all questions about FS2020 in one forum becomes a bit messy. So therefore we would like to ask you all to use the following guidelines when posting your questions:

    • Tag FS2020 specific questions with the MSFS2020 tag.
    • Questions about making 3D assets can be posted in the 3D asset design forum. Either post them in the subforum of the modelling tool you use or in the general forum if they are general.
    • Questions about aircraft design can be posted in the Aircraft design forum
    • Questions about airport design can be posted in the FS2020 airport design forum. Once airport development tools have been updated for FS2020 you can post tool speciifc questions in the subforums of those tools as well of course.
    • Questions about terrain design can be posted in the FS2020 terrain design forum.
    • Questions about SimConnect can be posted in the SimConnect forum.

    Any other question that is not specific to an aspect of development or tool can be posted in the General chat forum.

    By following these guidelines we make sure that the forums remain easy to read for everybody and also that the right people can find your post to answer it.

Aircraft checklist

Hi all,

I am pretty decent at (X)HTML & CSS for web design, so decided today to go into my favourite aircraft and try and get some checklists from PDF files onto the check.htm, so I can distribute it for use in-simulation (FSX so far). Now I don't use tables for layout, I use CSS and this file has no need for tables, so I deleted it all, started with a HTML 4 Strict doctype and made a bunch of left-aligned ordered lists to work my checklists through. While this works perfectly in any browser that I have (IE7, FF, Opera, Lynx and Safari), it will not work in Flight Simulator. It displays the first bit perfectly and then repeats the top image again with some of the text repeated for 4 or 5 times.

Here is an uploaded version.


Do any of you know if it needs to be table-based layout. I am assuming the rendering engine is IE6, based on FSX's release date.

Incidentally, I also took screenshots of the browser view and made it into one big image, which I then put in the file instead. Again, browsers fine but FSX browser repeats the top area over and over.

Any help appreciated.
