Hi Roget. Per the previous post on this mailing list, Babel had to be
shut down due to a server migration I had no idea that anyone was
still using it for anything. tsv should work fine with the newer
exhibit; i'll try to look into what's wrong. Do you need to generate
your json data on the fly or do you just make a new static json file
every few months? There are plenty of online tools supporting the
latter kind of manual conversion, such as

https://api.simile-widgets.org/exhibit/STABLE/exhibit-api.js because
Simile/Babel has disappeared and I don't know how else to turn my
Excel spreadsheet into Jason -- and the former version does not appear
to accept txt/tsv that I can get from Excel. So now I'm using STABLE
so I can use txt files, and the following code, which worked in the
earlier version, does not work any more. Can someone tell me how to
update this to work in the STABLE version? Frankly I don't know how I
got this to work in the first place, and I don't really understand it
now at all -- and I can't find whatever docs I had to figure this code
out in the first place. So I'm afraid I'm pretty ignorant.
<script type="text/javascript">
var rowStyler = function (item, database, tr) {
var TimesPerf = database.getObject(item, "TimesPerf");
var BackColor = "white";
var ForeColor = "black";
switch (TimesPerf) {
case 0: BackColor = "#CCCCCC"; ForeColor = "white"; break;
}
tr.style.background = BackColor;
tr.style.color = ForeColor;
};
</script>
Also, is there any way I can honor special characters like in "Dvořák"
and "Fauré"? This worked in Babel/Jason but not in DOS txt from
Excel. I can output unicode txt from Excel, but Exhibit STABLE
doesn't seem to handle that very well.
