gaah, sorry, didn't read upgrading so carefully as I haven't REALLY
been using refdb the last little while...
So about 9 months ago I was hoping to start a project to make a
web-accessible shared bibliography for use in my classes. Now, with
the classes mostly already finished... I'm trying to start
again. I I've got refdb running now, so I have a somewhat better idea of
how it works... very impressive, very sophisticated. I was wondering
whether it's possible to modify the output of getref -t html... I've
looked at the css, that does help. But mostly I'd like to be able to
remove the ID number & some of the paragraph markings, and to put the
output into table form (each reference in its own row table cell, &
followed by a couple of buttons "edit this reference" "comment on this
reference"). I've written some clumsy php which does this already,
but I haven't got the energy to deal with complex reference types so
it would be way better to use refdb if I can.
I just wondered whether there was a straightforward way to do this
or not... I suppose it would be possible to parse the output using
perl or something, but it somehow seems cleaner to be able to choose
the fields that actually print out...
anyway, hope this question is cohrent. getting late here! alles
beste,
matt
