Quoting in templates
by Owen Leonard 22 Jan '03

22 Jan '03

I'm going through the default [English] templates looking for things to clean up, and I'm finding a variety of ways of handling quoting. For example: <a href=/cgi-bin/koha/detail.pl?bib=<TMPL_VAR NAME="biblionumber">&type=intra><TMPL_VAR NAME="title">(<TMPL_VAR NAME="author">)</a> I'm assuming that the href= value isn't double-quoted because TMPL_VAR NAME is. This won't validate, nor will instances where single quotes are used (href=''). Is this really necessary? Isn't Perl looking for the <TMPL...> blocks and ignoring the HTML around it? -- Owen

I have released an updated version of Bundle::KohaSupport (0.08) to CPAN. This now (hopefully) contains a complete set of the required modules for the 1.2.x and 1.3.x versions. Please give this time to filter out to all mirrors. Cheers Mike

HTML files
by Bobby Billingsley 22 Jan '03

22 Jan '03

Hi folks :) While I'm in the process of translating the *.tmpl files to danish I've come up with a few things I'm unsure about. The HTML in these files is giving me a bit of a hard time, frankly it's a bit tricky for my wetware to snoop around the stuff looking for strings to translate. As an aid in this matter I've made a little perl wrapper for w3.org's tidy program. This is a great help, however there are a few issues with this approach. The main thing is that it croaks on the HTML::Tidy tags, even when configuring it to accept these tags. The solution to this would be to re-write these tags as  rather than <TMPL_VAR NAME="BLARGH"> ...this will also produce well-formed HTML which (to me at least) seems like a good idea. Another issue is when using non-ascii characters I'd prefer to use entities like "è" rather then "è" but am not sure what the general consensus on this is. Also, the tidy program seems to do a nice job of converting style-type tags into style properties/CSS - is this desireable? /bobby -- -- -- -- -- -- -- Bobby Billingsley, General Specialist -- -- -- -- -- -- -- ___ .--.- \ | | _ `-,_`--'__/ x./_ | Remember to love while you dare | ASCII ribbon campaign ( ) //-_`--/ //\ \ | remember to live while you do | - against HTML email X \__/ `---' \__/ | -- Piet Hein | & vcards / \ Lat: 55° 40' 52" N Lon: 12° 32' 56" E Anyone without a sense of humor is at the mercy of the rest of us :->

xxx-top.inc : note for translators
by paul POULAIN 22 Jan '03

22 Jan '03

The xxx-top.inc files that are in the /koha-tmpl/default/en/includes are composed of gif files, and are quite impossible to translate. That's why i've created new ones for the french translation of koha. Feel free to use them for your own translation. They are only text+css. They are in /koha-tmpl/default/fr/includes. -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

call for MARC21 parameters => IMPORTANT
by paul POULAIN 22 Jan '03

22 Jan '03

Hi everybody, In the 1.3.3 version, the UNIMARC/french parameters table are working well, they have been builded by a librarian with my help. the MARC21/english tables are NOT in a safe state. fields choosen are stupid, and some causes pain in the software. I call here for someone with a good MARC21 practicte to complete those MARC21 tables to fit a "standard" MARC management. Maybe Ambrose ? Or NPL ? It's quite simple to do : modify parameters with the GUI, and when you get something nice, dump the tables marc_tag_structure and marc_subfields_structure in a .sql file, then send it to me, or put it on cvs, in misc/marc_datas/marc21_en/structure_def.sql ! I will add as soon as possible a tool in the admin screen to check some mandatory things, to get sure that the parameters are consistent (as described in http://www.saas.nsw.edu.au/wiki/index.php?page=UserDoc ) -- Paul POULAIN Consultant indépendant en logiciels libres responsable francophone de koha (SIGB libre http://www.koha-fr.org)

recode and UTF-8
by Benedict 21 Jan '03

21 Jan '03

Hi all, I have just installed redhat-8.0. Nice stuff it is. But my polish files from cvs don't show in Kate editor. Fortunately there are other editors that work fine. I figure this must have something to do with what a friend of mine told me that redhat switched to UTF-8. If I am wrong, please correct me. I have found this package called "recode". It comes with a library and a program.It recodes between different charsets. I could easily convert between iso-8859-2 and UTF-8 an example file with command: recode l2..u8 <updatbiblio.tmpl >testrecode.tpml Now the question: What should I do. Is Koha going to be moving to UTF-8? Is it up to the translators to decide what charset should be used? How does that affect charsets in Mysql database? Benedict
