Hi Yves,

As promissed on IRC, I'm writing down a description of how to work on what
> you call the "dialogs" for the searches and reports. (We call them the
> "filter pages".)
>
> There are several things to know here:
>
>  * All listing-based reports (that is, not the balance sheet and the PNL,
> but all others) run through what we call "dynatable"
>  * Most filters (including balance_sheet.html and income_statement.html)
> are in UI/Reports/filters/
>  * All filters and "dynatable" are Template::Toolkit templates
>  * There are two libraries of "predefined" HTML expansions: (a)
> UI/lib/elements.html and (b) UI/lib/report-base.html
>  * The "report-base.html" library is typically used by the filter pages
>  * elements.html is used by nearly all pages
>  * The filter pages define forms which posts to scripts you can find in
> LedgerSMB/Scripts/*.pm (even though the URL says .pl)
>  * The scripts use Report objects which you can find in LedgerSMB/Report/*
>  * The various forms of income statements (including PNLs) are in
> LedgerSMB/Report/Income_Statement/*.pm (including PNL.pm)

Just came up with a another one:

 * In 1.5, you can easily work with Dojo widgets of any type and kind,
self-implemented or not, but in 1.4,
   widgets are instantiated by UI/lib/Loader.js. Any widgets the loader
doesn't know about need to be
   added to the loader, or - my preference - simply not be used until 1.5
(which is a major reason to want
   to release 1.5!)
