If we get new DP tag attributes "DividerGroup" (set to "<BR>") and "DividerEndGroup" (set to "<BR> <BR>"), there would be no need to modify the javascript code at all... I guess.

I put a note in the "bugs" forum, hoping to get Ken's attention. He may of course have important reasons to do this differently, but if it was just a neutral choice for one or the other, maybe it can be changed?

Ah, that explains at least one of the bugs in Rho's comparison layout as well. Thanks for the tip.

If you find out what new separator is used, please let us all know!

None is used, that's exactly the problem.

There are already different attributes for classes (DividerClass, DividerEpisodeClass, DividerGroupClass, DividerEndGroupClass), so apparently Ken just forgot to add the missing attributes. I hope so...

There must be some mechanism by which DVDP displays the dividers properly?

When I added <BR> to episode titles, the problems in Crew+ are solved (Cast + appears to use </NOBR><NOBR>), but in the "normal" DVDP display, the <BR> is then visible as text.

The dividers themselves are fine. The problem is, that the string that's set by the attribute "Divider" is only added after episode dividers, not the new group dividers. In the Crew+ window its value is "<BR>", but you can define whatever you like.

So, either the attribute has to be applied to all types of dividers or, like I proposed, two extra attributes have to be established (that's already the case for classes, like I wrote earlier).

So, it's definitely something that has to be changed by Ken.

I don't think episode dividers are at present correct either. They may be correct in Cast, and maybe for some parts of Crew, but not generally. See my experiment in adding <BR> to the end of episode dividers in Crew. (By the way, I experimented with other tags, but can't make that work).

Oh, you're right, missed that...
