Yoc,
My explanation probably wasn't very clear, I'll try to restate it. The files inside the ZIP file for Crack 42 are named appropriately (double digit page numbers, etc.), and if you extract them to a folder, and sort them in order of the file name, the pages are in the correct order. However, when the ZIP file was created, the files were apparently added in non-sequential order. Capt DJ's Preview program appears to be pulling the files out of the ZIP file in the "natural" file order, instead of in order of the file name. CDisplay is probably doing a "sort by name" function when it opens the .cbr/cbz file so they are displayed in the intended order.
I hope this makes more sense.

Yoc:
Ah, thanks Snard. I'm sure that will help CaptDJ
Funny though, if PKZip (or whatever) is doing this I'd had expected a lot more uploads with the same problem.
I use WinRar for everything but haven't uploaded anything since the preview function was added.

Geo (RIP):
Yoc, if you can get to them before I do, they both are in my folder on the ftp awaiting uploading, (in the correct page order, I checked them both out).

Captain DJ:
Thanks Geo for explaining that.
This is a known issue and one been working to fix, thought I had fixed it BUT it still occurs with some comics.
Basically whenever you add a file to a zip/rar file it gets given an index number. So first file added is index id 0, next file 1 etc.
I think I might have fixed this for .cbr/rar files but seems need to do some more work with zip/cbz files. My function basically opens the cbz/cbr file, finds index numbers then sorts them by filename.... but I'm guessing still few bugs in code.
Also reason cover thumbnail random page is because the extract thumbnail script that runs in background also based on my comic preview code for opening zip/rar files so it see's that page as first page so extracts it, resizes it and puts it in thumbnail folder.
Captain DJ:
Out of order cbz files should be fixed now :-D
Thou still needs testing and chances are another bug will show up now I fixed it
