Knut and Pm,
FGSv2 is now stable enough for beta testing.
Instuctions for the installation follow.
1. download "FGSv2-x-latest.txt" from <http://cbfa-cos.org/4others> and
place it in the cookbook directory.
2. in the cookbook directory, rename "FGSv2-x-latest.txt" to
"FGSv2-x-latest.php"
3. download the files
"Forms.Design-SampleTestCSSForm" and
"Forms.Design-Comments"
from http://cbfa-cos.org/4other> and
place them in the wiki.d directory
(Right click on the name and "save link as"
with wiki.d as the target.)
4. add the following line to your config.php file:
include_once('cookbook/FGSv2-x-latest.php');
5. enter "Forms/Design-SampleTestCSSForm" as
a PmWiki page name in your browser. This should
bring up the form design page.
6. click on the "Prepform" link.
This should create a directory named "formguides" and
set permissions so that PmWiki can write to it and access it
NOTE: this is one place where you may have trouble since
FGS requires that the "formguides" directory have the
same permissions as wiki.d. You may need to create
this directory and set the permissions by hand.
7. assuming that step 6 was completed correctly, you
should be viewing your first form using FGS. This
form is a "everything but the kitchen sink" form that
I use for testing FGS. It not beautiful but it does the
job.
8. when FGS is installed and the permissions are correct on
the formguides directory, let me know and I'll visit and
make sure things are working correctly. I will also
setup a comment page so that we can discuss the issues
on your installation using your copy of FGS.
If you have problems with the installation, please let me know.
Thanks for being willing to help with the beta.
Please email me or post here any problems and successes.
