Show/hide layers in pedigree not working

[Anders Berg]

I have a very strange problem. From other phpgedview sites I see that a small menu should appear when moving the mouse over the small icon in the individual's box in the pedigree chart.

On my site however the menu doesn't show BUT one of the larger icons in the top row disappears, and returns after a few seconds. Same timeout that's supposed to hide the layer menus... Seem to be a pointer problem.

Here you can check this problem out for yourselves:

John, do you have an explanation? I am running the latest version.

(PS I also had similar problems like others when installing, namely the online form-based routine for adding administative user and managing (edit) the gedcoms. The changes don't stick! I have to manually change the file <ged>.ged_conf.php each time).

That is very odd.  I wonder if it is because your IDs do not start with a letter.  GEDCOM IDs usually look like I5, I100.  They begin with an I.  But yours are like 160-14.

Try doing a search and replace in the functions.php file for:
".$pid."links
and replace it with:
I".$pid."links

You are right. That change fixed the problem for me!

I use one of Sweden's 2 or 3 most common genealogy programs, called DISGEN, and they apparantly use their own ID in the export. Without adding an I. Perhaps you should that care of this in a future release, since I am telling everyone in Sweden have great phpGedView is! Many possible new users out there. :)

I have already added it to the code for the next release.
