My family is attempting to organize our genealogical information on the internet. We are using three sites. We're using PhpGedView<http://www.familyhistory.mathews2000.com/gedview>to organize the normal genealogical information. Then a wiki to organize stories <http://www.familyhistory.mathews2000.com> / autobiographies and other such text. And then Gallery to organize photos<http://www.familyhistory.mathews2000.com/gallery>of our ancestors. We're pleased with the setup, especially PhpGedView, but are working on fixes to improve the sites. One thing I'm working on is with the wiki. Each ancestor has their own wiki page from which is linked all stories related to them. We want each ancestor page to have on it basic biographical information (birth, marriage, death, etc.). To ensure that the information is accurate we want to import the data to the wiki from PhpGedView. Right now we're just taking the person's PhpGedView page and placing it in an IFrame on the wiki. That works, but it's slow and has too much information. What I'm trying to do now is write a php script which will pull only the information we need off the PhpGedView database and place it in the wiki. I've got part of it working -- I can get the dates off the database but am confused how to get the places associated with those dates off the database. I've looked through the documentation but couldn't find anything useful. If it is there, someone please point it out to me. Else, just point me toward the code which performs this function in PhpGedView. This is my first PHP project but I can read PHP code alright. Thanks in advance, Kyle Mathews |
