I am trying to create a webpage that uses a local directory structure to dynamically create and populate a page showing a family tree.
I am planning on using a recursive function to read from the local directory and use that data to create the individual 'div' statements, from an external CSS file, that will break up the page into
Grandparent>Parent>Person<Parent<Grandparent
with a picture and small amount of data for each person; later adding siblings, children and partners.
My questions are:
1. Can Javascript alone do this?
2. If not, what other language(s) can help me do this?
3. Am I approaching this the wrong way, is there a better solution? |
