or you could just pad "<html><body>" before and "</body></html>" after in a test.html file like I did, and open it with your browser. it should be fairly easy for the bunch of coders here to write a parser to generate a url for each movie. I might write one in javascript if I get the time.

Yeah, as soon as I can, I'll add the date the last time we put the files up to date.

What a marvelously overcomplicated solution for such a trivial problem...

In IE, one could just enter the URL javascript:alert(document.body.contentEditable=true), then paste the code into the window and then enter javascript:alert(document.body.innerHTML=document.body.innerText).

What a marvelously egotistical and pompous response that doesn't even try to explain another solution. I feel like I need to remind people that not everyone here is a computer programmer. Several people, myself included, have absolutely no formal coding or software training, and have picked it up as we've gone along. So not only do you sound like a dick, Warp, you sound like a dick without trying to contribute anything. If I had tried to use what SXL had posted, I probably would have gone through the exact same process that Randil did, whether or not it was the absolute best solution available. Next time, offer some constructive criticism, instead of just criticism.

Well, thanks. I'm flattered.

Personally I believe that when someone doesn't understand humor and instead resorts to namecalling and personal attacks, that's rather childish and pathetic. I prefer being a dick rather than infantile. How about simply putting that "embed" line into a file named whatever.html and opening it in the web browser? Browsers are not very picky about the html file being 100% w3c-compliant.

Or you could just open this very long link in a new browser window or tab...

I have updated the description with the date that it was uploaded. NES is wrong because these are old files but I am willing to upload the missing movies as long as people could point out the missing movies. I couldn't update the GBA because I think the processing has not started yet.

Two comments. First, the date should be "2005—2009", or "January 2009", or just "2009", since it is a snapshot of the site's movie material by the start of 2009. Just "2005" doesn't convey such message. Second, the keywords are to be written as follows: word1; word2; word3. Currently they're written as: word1,word2,word3, and are thus parsed as a single word.

Here's what I've found for the NES section so far. I hope this helps out. These are the NES movies that are currently missing from the archive page: *8 Eyes *Kid Niki 3 These are the movies that are on the archive page but have been obsoleted: *bluesbrothers-tas-randil.avi should be replaced by this *dejavu-tas-v3-randil.avi should be replaced by this *ducktales2-tasv2-adelikat.avi should be replaced by this *finalfantasy-tas-theaxeman.avi should be replaced by this *jackal-tas-2palone-xipo.avi should be replaced by this *karnov-tas-jeffc.avi should be replaced by this *moaikun-tas-soulrivers.avi should be replaced by this *zelda2-tas-risingtempest-inzult.avi should be replaced by this *zelda-timeattack-2ndquest-sleepz.avi should be replaced by this *uninvited-tasv2-randil.avi should be replaced by this *superspyhunter-tas-genisto.avi should be replaced by this These movies are in the wrong section: *escapefrommarsstarringtaz-tas-emu.avi should be in the Genesis section instead of the NES section. *legendoftoki-tas-highness.avi should be in the Genesis section instead of the NES section. These are the movies that are in the list along with a movie that obsoletes it: *smb1fds-tasv2-phil.avi.avi is obsoleted by smb1fds-tas-happylee.avi, both of them present in the archive list.
