Posted by vivian Aguilar on 03/25/03 03:06 PM
Hi, i recently post a message "How to change templates" . An now after investigate a little i got it.
Now i want to create a user interface to create and modify the templates. I have some ideas.
First create an interfase to create the template second an interface where the users can select the colors of the header, lines, letter styles, and other stuff. All of this is going to be stored on the database with the template id. Any suggestions?

You want to look into the content repository features for applying templates to content items. There is a definite interest in providing templates editable through a web interface.

Another thing to think about is providiing more adp tags that can be used by template writers to give them access to more features of the toolkit without writing tcl code.
