[Citadel Development] webcit: Splitting vcard_edit.c into templates not too trivial

[psy-q]

I tried to extract vcard_edit into templates this weekend. I wanted to do it
in a way that gets us tokens like VCARD_FIRSTNAME, VCARD_LASTNAME etc. so
they can easily be used to populate a template form e.g. vcard_edit.html.  

It doesn't seem to be so easy, it seems I'd have to RegisterNamespace for
every single one of those tokens and then register callback functions to
extract that information into a token one by one? The function that extracts
all VCard information in do_edit_vcard() couldn't be changed to populate all
those tokens in one run, because RegisterNamespace is only available in an
InitModule, correct?  

My C really isn't up to this, I think. I don't know how i'd pre-populate a
VCard data structure in memory and then extract each token from it through a
callback as requested in RegisterNamespace.  

I think I'll drop this -- is there anything else I could help with? I can
clean up HTML once things move closer to release, if that helps.

Sure, there's a ton of that kind of work that needs to be done.  I do it when
I'm already in there somewhere and notice little things that need adjusting,
but having someone around to focus on it would be great.

Don't spend too much time on the vCard editor.  I will probably rewrite it
in the not too distant future.
