[css-d] CSS Family Tree?
I'm looking to make a family tree and I think the best way to do it is using a list, but I'm not sure. Has anybody tried doing this before or are there any examples up somewhere? __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

Have a look at: http://www.lesandchris.com/ged2www/ You can easily add some styles to such pages, which are generated in a very raw, and stripped-down form. Arbitrary example, without CSS: http://www.spanglers.info/dat153.html You could extend the source to include classes in the HTML output and then re-compile, contributing back to the project.

There was a previous css-d thread about a year ago from which the following contribution of mine is taken: http://archivist.incutio.com/viewlist/css-discuss/45781 __ css-discuss [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.css-discuss.org/mailman/listinfo/css-d List wiki/FAQ -- http://css-discuss.incutio.com/ Supported by evolt.org -- http://www.evolt.org/help_support_evolt/

I'm working on a similar project, but haven't gotten far yet :) So not
really an example, but a starting point (WARNING: don't bother clicking
any links, as that's just some family stuff, not family tree related;
mostly {e.g. license}):

I believe lists are the way to go, though this is rather off topic, as
we are dealing with a (X)HTML mark up question here, but anyhow, use
lists wisely. IOW, if the order is of importance, use ordered lists
[ol], if not unordered [ul]. I've created order by nesting definition
lists (family name == definition term [dt], family info data ==
definition description), which seems logical too me ;) Nest your lists
upto any depth, and then use the relative position, classes, and/or ID's
to display with defined styles in CSS stylesheets.
