Checking Your Map's Percentage Progress

While a cartographer is repairing your map, you can check to see the percentage done (versus simply looking at the progress of the green bar.) To do this, go to the Cartographer page. Next, select "view source"(In the view tab of your browser) while on the cartographer page. When the source page is open, open search. Search "pendingprogress".

You should find the following line-

div class="pendingprogress">Order in progress.../div>div class="timeremaining" style="width: 100px; background-position: 62px 50%;">

The number right before the px is the percentage that the map is done. (for me it is 62) —Preceding unsigned comment added by Thruppence (talkcontribs) 15:42, 2 February 2009

This information is not appropriate for the article. The steps described to find the info are not accurate for every browser and will likely cause confusion and frustration. It's also fairly useless info -- the visual progress bar is accurate enough for most people to get a sense of how far along the repair is. It's fine as a comment here, but it's not good info to dump on the general public who aren't used to looking at HTML code. IMHO. -- B.Rossow talkcontr 21:59, 2 February 2009 (UTC)
