Spoiler free schedule

[leclerc]

Hi, thought some of you might be interested in this website I made for personal use where you can look up a schedule for an NBA team and click to show the result for each match individually. Going to NBA.com or any other sports site tends to reveal things you don't want to know. Especially useful if you've recorded a game and want to know which games are coming up, or the result of a previous game. There's no commercials or any way I get money off of this by the way.

Anyway, here it is: http://www.killie.org/nba/schedule.html

'Great idea! Unfortunately, it wouldn't open (on my iMac).

The blue highlight which starts the process on the URL didn't get past the first flash -- http://www

(I would have ended that sentence with a ".", but it didn't even reach the dot in the address.)

It should be no different than going to any website. Instead of typing in www.google.com you type www.killie.org/nba/schedule.html and hit enter.

Actually, I copied and pasted the URL from your post. It automatically converted it to "www".

When I forced it out and used strictly http://killie.org/nba/schedule.html, the screen just stared at me. IPerhaps my iMac is not compatible. Check it out.

Open up just fine on my Mac, maybe its a browser compatibility issue.

I have a Mac also, I use Chrome as a browser, and it worked just fine.

Yup. I use Safari as my routine browser. When I tried it with Google Chrome, it opened.

Thanks, guys.

It's a brilliant site, thank you!

Just noticed that some team sites don't follow (what I thought was) the default template, so I might need to write some team specific code for those. Mavs and Celtics at least. I'll see.

That is a really cool website. I am just learning how to use bootstrap, and enjoyed seeing your website made with it. I love bootstrap's compatibility between mobile and desktop. I am curious, was there a pre-made component to scrape the schedules? or did you write yourself? I want to import some data and I really haven't studied .php code yet. Great Job, leclerc!

Thanks Jay! I also like Bootstrap and use it a lot. I'm pretty green on PHP myself but I managed to hack together a script that loads schedules from NBA.com using PHP Simple HTML DOM parser which returns the schedule for a team on JSON format. I use React on the client which is a very interesting library I think. Then Bootstrap for styling.
