I am using gedcom.pm to create a simple gedcom editing program. it's basically a thin layer to allow a user access to gedcom files. I am having some problems though and was wondering if anybody out there could help.
how do I automatically find out if I can have multiple items. IE I can have many FAMS tags but only one SEX tag. I have tried using $record->max but that always fails as an invalid call. how do I properly link external documents to SOUR. I have a gedcom file that was created with PAF that shows 1 OBJE hello 2 FORM png 2 FILE page1.png 2 NOTE some description but gedcom.pm says that form, file and note are not valid tags for obje. is there a different way? sample code maybe? how do I setup the CONT tag? if I add a note it just goes on a single line. This probably leads to another point of confusion I have. It looks like some tags (NOTE,PLAC) allow data to be put to them and have sub tags. is there a way to automatically recognize this? Thanks in advance. Nate FYI once I have the program working I'm more than happy to share. :)
