Our Fall Portsmouth Series had the first 4 races cancelled due to weather or no wind. When I publish using results, the summary table does not show the un-sailed races since there were no competitors are marked sailed (All competitors marked excluded since none have sailed). Once a race is sailed (at least 1 competitor is not marked excluded) all of the un-sailed races will show in the summary table. This phenomenon only manifests when the cancelled/un-sailed races are the first ones in the series. Other than forcing a competitor to show in the results via a score or rescore (e.g., showing the excluded racers or adding a non-excluded “dummy” racer), is there a way to have the summary table show the races? The individual races show properly below the summary table.
Hi Tom,
On the first publishing window in the Series summary option what happens when you select the option All races?
Kind regards,
Huw
Thnks Huw for the suggestion, but I already had that selected. Attached is the blw.

Hi Tom,
Sailwave is working correctly, as there are no results and no competitors (*
*.excluded) no series information to publish.
A work around is to create two dummy competitors, one in each of the Laser and Port fleets, leaving all competitor information blank except the appropriate fleet name. Create an Alias of one of them, then change the fleet name to overall.
When you publish you will get
When you have some actual results those 3 ‘dummy’ competitors can be deleted.
I hope t hat helps you.
Kind regards,
Huw
Huw,
I did that earlier and it works. I was hoping there was a setting in lieu of creating the dummy competitors.
Thanks and have a great day,
Tom
Huw and Jon,
I believe that the HTML created by Publish → Results is bad, When you look at the actual HTML there are ‘’ defined for the 4 races, but there are no ‘<th…>’ for them. This is inconsistent and confusing to any post processing scripts. For example, the segment below shows the inconsistency. As a minimum I would expect there to be the same number of “th” as “col” that would contain the same information (race name and date) if the race had at leat 1 non-excluded competitor.
Am I missing something?
Thanks,
Tom

Sorry, but the HTML expanded to visual html. The raw HTML would be (between the

How do I get the raw HTML to show as regular text and not what the HTML displays? Sorry.

Post an image instead.
