I have no idea how to, but if you'd like to, you're free to.
The only thing is... I don't see it being useful. I'd planned to make subpages for each heading, with the subheadings listed and explained on that page (for example, the "warrior" page would have a link to the "warrior equipment", "warrior attributes", and "warrior skills" pages). The index was never really intended to be primary navigation, it's just been serving in lieu of the proper pages until those are up. The only possible detriment I see is that it might make it harder to add new headings to the index (I, for example, wouldn't know wtf to do to add anything to that block of code).
So, if you really want to change the index, I don't think such a change would hurt anything, but I think working on the heading pages would be more helpful (and, of course, you're free to that, too). User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 19:38, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
Made some suggestions, planning many more. Also made some modifications in that code to be easily modificated. Boro 10px‎ 21:00, 8 March 2009 (UTC)
It's Done!!! Boro 10px‎ 17:52, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
Color brightness needs some adjustment (needs moar easy2read), but other than that, it looks good. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 22:46, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
Use the colour values other tables on the wiki use for the love of god and all that is holy. Misery 22:49, 9 March 2009 (UTC)
I was lazy searching for them. I was searching for them in skill tables and couldn't find one. but if you post the RGB codes (hexadecimal) here I am willing to change it for you. (ofc you can change it, it's not that hard.) Boro 10px‎ 07:12, 10 March 2009 (UTC)
I'd wanted something like this for each profession, with a link to each subsection. The index was never intended to be the primary means of navigation.
Also, a navbar would be awesome, but I've no idea how to code something like that. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 01:11, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
Well... at least we should work out a way to make a viable shadow form instead of this broken one. Boro 10px‎ 13:45, 12 March 2009 (UTC)
What about collapsible submenus for each section? That would make things a lot easier, but I have no idea how to code something like that. User Raine R.gif Raine - talk 21:32, 28 March 2009 (UTC)
Well.. that's a good idea. but unfortunately that's also beyond my skills in wikicode Boro 10px‎ 06:51, 29 March 2009 (UTC)
