Here's a question from a newbie.
I know the Eve Team doesn't support or suggest the use of user addons and such. But was curious if there might be a safe one or way to Export Character Data like skill list (beyond the one on the site here of course) and Current Ship Euipment data.
Basically, I'm wanting to display the info on my forums to get feedback in regards to my equipment and skill choices.
Any suggestions?

You can download all the in game data from the Revelations data export if you wanted to make your own lists of equipment.
Or use something like QuickFit perhaps? Not sure if that can export or not.

To export your character data go here. There is an option to download it as an XML file. There are tools like EveMon that allow you to analys your characters skills. There are also sites that allow you to repost the data for others to see. Sorry, I don't have a link to those sites handy right now but if you do some more digging you should be able to find them.
The link provided above is general game data like solar systems, starebases, items, ship and other such stuff. It is the information used by many of the fan websites to provide information about the game. There are also a lot of mini tools and calculators for various purposes.

Found out how to open the XML files. But unfortunally haven't a clue what to do with it, or how to repost that info in a more readable format.
Will have to give Quickfit a look over tho. Thanks for the suggestions.

Did a little more digging around and found this website that will convert your XML file into something more presentable.

Well you already know about QuickFit. There's also EVEMon for skill planning.
To make XML files more readable, check out XSL. It's like CSS but for XML files. I had a hard time finding how to actually use it but I eventually found out 2 ways:
XSL linking to XML:
Open the .xml file in a text editor. Notepad would do, but I like EditPlus more, because it can do syntax hightlighting.
After the first line, which should be something like
 Quote:
<?xml version='1.0' encoding='utf-8' ?>
add
Quote:
<?xml-stylesheet type="text/xsl" href="your_xls_file.xsl"?>
Save and open the .xls file in Internet Explorer for example.
Using ActiveX:
Make a new file with the .html extension and put this in it:
Quote:
<html>
<body>
<script type="text/javascript">
// Load XML
var xml = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xml.async = false
xml.load("your_xml_file.xml")
// Load XSL
var xsl = new ActiveXObject("Microsoft.XMLDOM")
xsl.async = false
xsl.load("your_xls_file.xsl")
// Transform
document.write(xml.transformNode(xsl))
</script>
</body>
</html>
Save and open the .html file in Internet Explorer.
You can find more XLS examples here.
