[Phpgedview-talk] New person: a simple modification?

[Craig U. <cra...@gm...>]

Hello,

    I am new to PHPGEDVIEW.  I have been working on the behalf of a cultural
society to develop a program to keep track of immigrants.  I initially
suggested PHPGEDVIEW when I sat down with them, but they had concerns.
Well, I have been trying to write a Ruby on Rails application, but it is far
more work than I expected.  So, at this point I care to inquire about the
amount of effort and practicality of adding two different identification
number fields to keep track of each individual who is a Luxembourg immigrant
to the USA to the model, adding logic to query the model based on those ID
numbers to the controller, and displaying the fields in the "right spot"
through the view plus the controls to input a query.  In other words, I am
looking to plug in or add on to PHPGEDVIEW.  Is this possible?  I don't know
PHP.  Is there a way to do this with a minimum amount of effort given that I
want to get this project done in six weeks?  Could someone kindly present me
with an outline of tasks that would need to be executed?


Sincerely,

Craig
