Post Undergrad Meeting
With a bit of testing we managed to finish all the work for the new generate.php and its associated files. The main generate.php file works perfectly, the files that xsl files (person, projects, organizations) are in working order, and some pointless/outdated files (meetings, authors, researchers) have been removed. some of the errors were coming from random characters misplaced in the files and others seemly came from no where and fixed themselves over the course of testing. With this out of the way I'm starting up on a new way to test queries, xml's and xsl's outside of the usual Drupal edit/view method. I'll write more once I have my plans set up and a clear picture of how I'm going to code it all together.

April Showers.
I haven't been able to test if my work on recrafting the generate.php file for a few weeks since something went wrong with the Leo test site. Even though I'm still a bit unsure of what happened, it sounds like "someone" loaded the wrong files so that everything was looking in the wrong place and thus failing to properly load. Once it was back up we got to start testing and right away found some issues. The generate.php file that I had prepared was no where in sight and in its place was a no functioning copy of the old generate.php, it had duplicate lines of code that stopped it from actually doing anything. As I'm typing this, I'm trying to track down some of the error logs that will hopefully show why the project pages are failing to properly transform the xsl files. Once that's done everything should be in place and I can move onto the next project. I'm going to be splitting my time for the next week and a half on TWC work and prepping for my CCNA certification test, which I'm hoping to pass on the first try. And we finally get a TWC Undergrad meeting. Yay!
