GenoPro Support Forum

The ultimate solution is to have GenoPro internally load the file NameDictionary.xml and do the name translations before generating the report.  This way, all the individuals in the tree would have their names translated automatically.

I was refering to the ToHtmlHyperlink method. This method internaly takes the default name. I know that I can bypass it, but as I said before I want to change as less code as I can, so that any change in the default skin will not affect the translated skin.

Will it be possible to add a method that will get the hyperlink phrase as parameter?

Thanks.
It can be just a temporary method until GenoPro will do this automatically. I can translate the individual summary to Hebrew, but the hyperlinks are still in English...

I added a new property named Report.TagHyperlink.  This property allows you to set the tag attribute to use when creating an hyperlink.  Here is an example:

Running this code within file template individual.htm, I got the following for my family tree:

This improvement will be in Beta15g (coming this week).

If I understood what you said then what I should do is somthing like this:

Is this correct?

I'm not using the "Alternative Names" field. I created the "NameDictionary.xml" file and using it to translate the names. Although, now that you mentioned it I should be reffering in my code to this option, as well.

I'm getting an error message that there is an "Invalid character" on the Report.TagHyperlink line

StrFullName is a my method to translate the ind. name to Hebrew.

The Report.TagHyperlink is getting a string which is the GenoPro field to be taken as the hyperlink.

What I need is somthing a little different. I don't want to enter several names to an individual. I want to give the English name to my ind. Then I take the translation from "NameDictionary.xml". The advantage this way is that I only have to translate the name once and not go over each name in my tree and give him the Hebrew name. So, what I originally asked is the ability to give the hyperlink string itself. My method will translate the name into whatever language you want and give the translated name, as a string, to your method. In turn your method will use this string as the hyperlink text.

In this way your tree can be in English, but you will be able to produce reports in any language you want as long as you have the dictionary.xml and NameDictionary.xml without the need to enter "Alternative Name" in different languages each time.

I am not asking for that!
I don't want you to translate anything!

What I need is, if possible, a method like Report.TagHyperlink but instead of giving it a name of field to take the value from, I want to give it the value to use!

For example:

where strTranslatedName is the string, which I already translated, and I want the ReportGenerator to use it as the hyperlink text.
