>1) >I would like to write a PHP interface to read the bible modules (at first). Can one of you provide the structure and encoding/decoding algorithms for the modules?
Well, if you don't want to use SWIG (and there are enough reasons why you don't want to), you better can focus on ONE format, and convert all Sword modules to that specific format (lesser code, easier to debug, easier to maintain). Pesonally I prefer the OSIS format (I think/hope that is going to be the new standard for bible-related texts). For an example of my PHP script, based on OSIS, see http://test.scripture.nl/script/bible.php?version=tr&verse=Joh.1.1-5&mor phs=1&strongs=1. Another PHP-script I've written is based on ThML (which is also a nice standard, but it isn't as 'clean' as OSIS), see http://www.scripture.nl. If you have questions, feel free to ask. 2) >As far as I have seen the config files talk about ZIP encoding. If I'm correct that's based of the same algoritm als GIF files. PHP GD did stop the support for GIF files because of copyright problems. Is this copyright thing not a problem for this project (e.g. did you get a free green light)? Just a notice, I'm not up-to-date with this copyright thing. ZIP isn't patented (as far as I know), there are even free modules providing ZIP support to PHP (I even think it is shipped with PHP, but I'm not sure). _______________________________________________ sword-devel mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.crosswire.org/mailman/listinfo/sword-devel
