MobileRead Forums - View Single Post - PRS-500 Help modifying the Direct Page Control hack

DoctorBri · 12-28-2007, 11:36 PM

I know nothing of XML, but I want to modify the Direct Page Hack to serve a particular purpose. I want to be able to enter a range of numbers and have them link to particular pages. Examples:

450101 - 450111 goto page 3
451219 - 451306 goto page 35

My other request, though less important, would be to replace the words "GoTo" to particular names when entering page numbers on the Reader. For example, if the 1st 2 numbers entered are 45 (like in the above examples) the word "Romans" would be displayed instead of "GoTo". The end result would be that entering 450101 would display Romans 01:01 (or 1:1, I suppose) and then go to page 3.

If someone could get me started, I'd appreciate it. I looked at the code, but couldn't figure it out, and I couldn't open it in an XML reader, (got an error). Thanks in advance.
