I'd like to announce my project of new skin for report generator.
It is based on current one, but has lot of modifications and changes.

Primary goals:
-Remove all frames
-Make it more css dependent, so it will be more customizable for any user
-Speed up opening pages, by loading content on left sidebar by using AJAX

You can check now, how it looks on http://familytrees.genopro.com/Quayle/dev
Config.xml is slightly modified, but not Dictionary.xml, so all the translations will be valid for it.

Any comments are welcome. Smile

Edit:
Changed dev-site address.

JavaScript is fairly cross platform. What exactly are you expecting to be different between Windows and Linux?

Things like IncludeFile, but if you say:
edanite (9/18/2010)

JavaScript may not have an include statement, but the GenoPro report generator does. <%[@ IncludeFile "path/to/file.js" ]%> I can't find that this is documented anywhere, but it works.

....I didn't know, that it's a GenoPro statement. Are you sure it it will work on Linux on Wine?
edanite (9/18/2010)

Also, you've used new ActiveXObject in generate.htm, that almost certainly won't work outside of JScript (Microsoft's JS engine).

And that's the one of things which could be different on different OS'es. Smile

edanite (9/18/2010)

Are you going to create the repo, or shall I?
Did you get a chance to take a look at my mockup? Do you have any comments on it?

Please, create the repository. Smile

Yeah, I looked on, but completely forgot about commenting it. Sorry... Sad
I think gender images and similar, things should be set in css too. E.g. In my report I've made them as a background image and set for them padding. Rest needs no commentary. Is good. Smile


Ron (9/18/2010)

I see a potential use of an abstraction layer, not in platform variations, e.g. Windows vs. Linux, but in genealogy database variations. This approach could potentially permit 'hijacking' the GenoPro Report Generator to generate similar reports from databases other than GenoPro. The problem will be in defining the abstraction layer data model and interfaces. As Gedcom is the lowest common denominator it would be a good starting point, with perhaps 'extensions' for the various differences between packages, e.g. genograms and relationships, social entities in GenoPro.

Oooo... Same look, no matter what program was used before? It would be awesome! Smile

Thanks for explaining it, Ron. Smile
