Description

When the Location column was added to the Your computers page (#569, [14897]), the Tasks column was removed too.

People at SETI want it back (see this forum thread).

It's definitely a good idea. The link is really useful to see how your results are going.

And it's really useful to helpdesk volunteers too. To quote an actual example from Einstein today,

"One of my old P-III machines got a workunit that only took about half as long as it should have to crunch."

Bring up the user's computer list, eyeball the model names, click on link to results (or tasks, as they are now known everywhere except the Server Status page). Simple, it was: now vastly more clicking and backtracking to track down that P-III.

Slight glitches:

  • </nobr> is mistyped as </nobar>.
  • The <a> tag isn't closed, which makes the error recovery from browsers extend the link up to the </nobr>. It looks weird with the ] as part of the link but not the [. At least that's what it does on Firefox; it wouldn't surprise me if some browser out there makes the whole page from that point be a link to tasks!
