Hello,
I've made a final "prototype" for the ToDos page. What I mean by that is that all the Javascript/CSS/HTML is in place and works well, but but I haven't added all the tasks from the ToDos page.

Nice..I guess we can take up additional viability at some point...i.e. among Project Leads who I assume would be making modifications to this.
This page is meant to show exactly how everything will work. And adding tasks is as simple as writing HTML.
Things to note:
1) The Javascript code is clean and simple. Furthermore, it reuses code a lot and is designed to be easy to extend. Right now I have two sorting criteria (difficulty and skill). Adding an additional criteria just takes two lines.
For example, say we want to add a "time commitment" criteria, with possible values:
- "About 1 week" - "About 2 months" - "About 1 year"
You add these two lines of JS:
var g_timeline = "any"; function setTimeline(value) { g_timeline = value; RefreshDocument(); }
What about the options?
Options are not hard coded into the JS. They are just set in the HTML form. Whatever options you pick in the HTML, the JS will handle.
2) I significantly improved the HTML. The current page has really ugly code. Lots of BGCOLOR's, <font>'s and <b>'s everywhere. Very hard to maintain. Now I'm using <div> tags and CSS to make it all very clean. Using this system would make the page a lot more maintainable.
I have made 3 sample tasks for illustration purposes:
Task #1 is "easy" and requires "XML". Task #2 is "hard" and requires "C/C++". Task #3 is "hard" and requires "XML".
I encourage you to play around with various settings for 'difficulty' and 'skill' and see how the page changes automatically.
Cheers,
