Looks good!

"The only problem I have so far is that it's completely incompatible with internet explorer."

wait didn't you say you had a problem?

looks neat btw

When I startup IE the url bar is frozen until a homepage is displayed. (about 3 seconds, waiting......)
Firefox let's you type immediately before anything loads.
-> This is my biggest reason. It may not sound like much but every single time I have to use IE it makes me want to destroy my keyboard.

Microsoft continues to create it's own buggy code that doesn't comply with universal methods used by various browsers. Ask any website designer about IE and they'll tell you they wish IE never existed. Most programming is broken by IE whereas a large majority of it works flawlessly in all of the other major browsers on the market.

You better believe that IE is worthless when 90% of the people that have to program for it hate it. Users may not mind it or even notice how crappy it is but that's because programmers have spent hours upon hours adding extra functionallity to their code to accommodate for IE's lack of vision in their browser. And most people are too lazy to even TRY a new browser out for the fear of having to learn something new. This is why I pity them.

IE semi-freezes on me all the time. It takes forever to open new tabs. It's slow at everything it does. It may not be 100% worthless but it's a POS for sure.

"Switching to Chrome's Incognito mode also switches off the auto-suggest features, a Google representative said. "

If you wanted to be private you could have easily gone incognito. Besides, it was only added to improve the quality of their product in the best, honest, possible way. I highly doubt there are people out there that type their passwords or credit card numbers or any other type of personal information in a search bar anyway, so what does it matter xD

What else would you be hiding? If you're searching for something bad then you deserve to be prosecuted yeah I said it

Update, everything works fine in Opera, Safari and the Flock browser. (As well as firefox and chrome)
IE is the only one with "issues" beyond my control.

Note: My examples above have not been updated and don't work in opera. I fixed this problem but I wont be updating the live version until I'm ready for it to be shown.

Nope, it doesn't access Imperial Conflict at all.

This program will be per-family based. Meaning everyone in a family can add planet lists and view planet lists from other family members.
This will eliminate the need to post plists in a family forum because everyone will have them in one central place, and even better they can view the list without having to pop it into ICMapGen.

There are a lot of additional functions that I'll be adding as well.
When choosing what plists to show you'll be able to choose GROUPS of plists. I'm thinking of making a treelist like:

+ Family #xxxx
- Empire 1
- Empire 2

You'll be able to select the entire family or just individual empires and view them all in one grouping. (or even several families and several empires)
When choosing which planet lists to show on the map you'll be able to display 3 different groupings at once.
Each grouping will have it's own user-chosen system color (like MapGen) to display on the map and there will be 1 color for each combination of those 3 groups (1-2, 2-3, 3-1 ... and 1-2-3)
So when you view the map - systems that only contain planets owned by the empires in 1 grouping will be colored the color the users chooses for that group. And if two/three groups share a system a different system color will be shown depending on the user's choice for that combination.
So there will be, at most, a total of 7 differently colored systems on the map at one time.

This can be useful if you want to show all of your families planets VERSUS all of your allies planets VERSUS all of an enemies planets. (or any combination you can think of.. it could even be attack phases.. Phase1, Phase 2, Phase 3.. your only limited by what you can think of)
All shares will be visible and you wont have to spend hours modifying MapGen to do the same thing (At least at this complexity)

The Online map gen will be able to store more complex information as well. You'll be able to copy your planet's page and the program will log which one of your planets are portaled etc. when you update your personal plist (I might even make it possible to store which planets are lasered and the maxsize/built info as well. This could be very helpful when planning jumps because you can view your entire families planet info - hell I might even add a building calculator for kicks - but these are just thoughts in process and would take a while to invent)

I'll probably be adding a ton of Comparison functions too using the groups above. One will be a fleet calculator like MapGen.
But I'll probably have a Share-Outputer which just gives you something you can copy/paste with a list of certain shares etc.

I'm also thinking of making it possible to click on a system and have it take you to that specific system in-game.
If you wanted to you could goto the forum while in-game and click on a link to my onlinemap and use my map instead of IC's (Maybe IC will make a link for it on the sidebar too, or an option that you can turn on in preferences lol. Just an idea xD)

I dunno, more ideas are appreciated! I love not having to think up everything all by myself xD

Updated.

It's not functional but the graphical parts are coming along.

It'll all be stored in a database accessable only to me (online). So you can either trust me or not use the program lol.

The system should (in theory) be 99% locally secure (It's impossible to be 100% security safe anywhere)

The only possibility is that spys etc. can give out the family password/login information. So you'd have to trust your family on that one.
