Ideas transmogrified into reality
A downloadable version is on my to-do list. It will be accomplished eventually one way or the other...eventually. This is not the idle promise of a half-hearted developer but the promise of a application developer who loves D&D...so let it be written, so let it be done.
BTW...the random encounter generator just got leveled up as well!

You gave pretty much everything I could wish for with the random encounter updater. I was especially happy when my forest encounters ranged from centaur druid to a combo of a vampire elf and a fiendish half-elf.
I did find myself deselecting "humanoid" and "goblinoid" a lot, checkboxes for "don't add class levels" or "don't advance by HD" could be good.
Oh, it seems like clicking humanoid once to select it and once to deselect it would be more "natural" than holding down Ctrl to deselect it, but you did include the note right there when I had problems figuring that out.

I am planning on having several checkboxes to "turn off" several things like templates, template rules, multi-classing, etc.
As far as the clicking I am using the built-in default for all browsers. I have written my own widget for such things that you can see on the main Monster Advancer (see the template list). I could use that if that would be nicer.

Browser Compatibility
The application is currently compatible and tested on Firefox 2.0-3.0, Chrome 1.0 & 2.0, Safari 3.0 & 4.0, IE6,IE7 and IE8 and Opera 9+. Actually, I have had no reports of browser specific issues (which is something I shoot for).
The quickened version and random encounter generator also book work pretty well on an iphone (safari mind you). The main application actually works as well but it takes a bit as it does a fair amount of work.
The site does not show any official downtime as I am emailed if the server does go down automatically. It seems like a localized problem. If the problem persists let me know I would be happy to help trouble shoot if it comes to that. I hope you have better luck!
(As a side note-I also have a number of regular users from Denmark so don't lose hope it works!)

More requests, if you're following this:
1) Can you add the rest of the SRD feats (psionics and divine section especially, but also epic)?
2) Does the advancer check feat prereqs? I seemed to be able to add Deflect Arrows to an aboleth without Improved Unarmed Strike.
3) When adding levels, can it automatically add to stat boosts?
4) Anyway to generate spells prepared/spells known lists when adding spellcaster levels to critters?

NPC Designer has kobolds (just discovered that one, worth the download).

Kobolds should not be overlooked!
I am simply still in the process of entering all the creatures and kobolds aren't in there yet but they will be making the next release. It is possible that their small sizes caused me to overlook them but I will remedy this shortly. I will let everyone know when the next release is coming as soon as possible. I apologize to kobolds and all dragon-kin for this oversight.
