Alright...this is how I came about it, in the Agucultural UN Report, a nation in my region is only 2 spots down from me in the World Listing, and 1 spot in the 5 nation region, now this is incredable!!! I would go looking for whom was between us..but I'm Of The People-e, ranked 2nd in the region and 49,278th in the world for Largest Agricultural Sector and my neighbor is Graphdom; ranked 3rd in the region and 49,280th in the world for Largest Agricultural Sector. Now as you can see...it'd be reducious to go the 40000-some odd pages you'd have to go through. I don't have the patients(as I'm sure most of you'll don't either.

MY IDEA

Is to put a box in "The World" next to "Nation" and "Region" that we can type our World Rank and it would take us to the page that we're on and show the other 9 nations on there.

What'ya thank?

delete the other 2 extra threads you have with the same title first

That's a pretty good idea. But I don't think it'll happen anytime soon. The programmers are pretty stretched thin at the moment as it is. Your's would be at the bottom of their lists.

Here's what you might be looking for:

[code:1:03a653f92e]http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=world/start=[/code:1:03a653f92e]

Put any number you like (under the number of total nations obviously) after 'start' and you'll get the corresponding page.

http://www.nationstates.net/cgi-bin/index.cgi/page=world/start=2350 for example will bring me to the page with nations ranking 2351-2360.

Have fun! :wink:
