ELKS Website - version 2

ELKS Website - version 2

[Riley Williams]

Hi all.

For those interested, the proposed version 2 of the ELKS website,
which is aimed to automatically use the surfer's preferred choice
of language, has been loaded at...

    http://elks.sf.net/2/

...for those interested. It clearly needs LOTS of work before it
is ready for mainline though...

Best wishes from Riley.

That's the elksweb2 package on the CVS server. If that corresponds to
your v2 then yes, it is. Since the normal website is simply the
elksweb (without the '2' suffix) extracted into the relevant directory
I just did the same with the elksweb2 package.

Those errors are the reason for my saying it clearly needs LOTS of work
before it's ready for mainline, and that's also why it isn't linked to
from the current website.

Best wishes from Riley.

I've never used PHP, but it looks like one of the problems
has to do with the directory search path.

It looks like the PHP interpreter is searching for include files
in either the working directory or the php library
(include_path='.:/usr/local/lib/php').

In one case, the file it's parsing is
/home/groups/e/el/elks/htdocs/2/Functions/total.php
It's looking for ./functions/data.php. If the working directory is
/home/groups/e/el/elks/htdocs/2/, then the problem is probably that the
subdirectory named Functions should be renamed functions (lower-case f).

Or, all the references in total.php to ./functions/data.php need to be
changed to ./Functions/data.php. But looking in CVS on Sourceforge,
there is no such file. I don't know what that means. Is it possible
that data.php is supposed to be dynamically generated?

That's certainly possible, but I've dealt with one half of that problem
and changed all references to "./functions/" to "./Functions/" in that
file and committed the changes to the CVS and the /2/ website. However,
that does leave one problem that isn't so easily solved - the line that
reads...

    $content=getcontent(strtolower("./Languages/$lang/$item.html"));

...where that strtolower() needs to ignore the "./Languages/" part and
only operate on the rest of the line.

The fact that data.php doesn't exist is still true though...

Comments, anybody?

Best wishes from Riley.

A quick search through an online php manual
(http://php.planetmirror.com/manual/en/language.types.string.php) tells
me you should be able to change that line to:

$content=getcontent("./Languages/".strtolower("$lang/$item.html"));

Try copying taal.php to data.php.

Hi Harry.

I get exactly the same, but don't know PHP well enough to sort those
errors out myself. If you want to tweak it, it's the elksweb2 package
on the ELKS CVS server, which I just extracted into the relevant place.

I'll be going online around 20:00 GMT to tweak things to auto-update
the website from any updates to the elksweb and elksweb2 packages, so
after that, your updates should be applied within an hour of being
made if you wish to check things out.

Right now, it's 01:25 BST and I'm for bed.......

Best wishes from Riley.

I'm going to look for the errors etc. But the main problem (a year ago) was the latency between updating the CVS and viewing the result after syncing.
