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.

I'm afraid I haven't done any "real work" on it recently.  I have done some thinking, though.  With the context that my web host uses a FreeBSD-Apache-PHP stack, here are my new thoughts:
  • We have the report generator generate fragments for each object.  There's a server-side script that builds complete pages from the fragments, but we also fetch the fragments with AJAX calls and the HTML5 History API once we have the page in the browser.
  • We should use "clean" URLs (like /individual/Potter-Harry) whenever possible.  Preferably, these should be "smart" to some extent with one canonical form and several alternate forms, though this would seem to require a database of some sort to handle the lookups in a scalable manner.
  • The URL canonical form should be human readable, though it may be difficult to guarantee uniqueness of URLs in a single pass.  During development, we can use something like /individual/ind00001 as the canonical form because it's guaranteed unique, but this isn't friendly.
  • I realized that the current SVG code is written in VBScript, but our new report will be written in JScript.  This leads to a question: is it possible to have a mixture of scripting languages in the same report?
