Family Tree Applet.

This applet displays the names of family members interactively. The central person is surrounded by their nearest relations thus:

Paternal Grandfather	Paternal Grandmother	Maternal Grandfather	Maternal Grandmother
Paternal Aunts/uncles	Father	Mother	Maternal Aunts/uncles
Paternal Cousins	Central Person		Maternal Cousins
Paternal Cousins	Spouse/Partner	Siblings	Maternal Cousins
Paternal Cousins' Children	Children	Nieces/nephews	Maternal Cousins' Children

The central person may contain an extra line of information such as birthday and/or a photo. Clicking on any person in the display moves to their family.

Data is entered in a text file called familytreedata.txt. Relationships are established by specifying father, mother and partner (where known). The format is one person per line, each with an id number. The options are:

id,NAME
id,NAME,partnerid
id,NAME,fatherid,motherid
id,NAME,fatherid,motherid,partnerid

The id numbers must come in order but need not all be present. Blank lines and lines beginning with a forward slash (/) are ignored. Following the list of names, the optional information can be entered in any order thus:

id,optional_info
id,,photo.jpg
id,optional_info,photo.jpg

Three .class files (familytree.class, member.class, midcanvas.class) need to be in the same directory as the html file together with familytreedata.txt. The following code needs to be in the html file
< applet code=familytree width=500 height=400 > < /applet >
(the applet will fill whatever size it's assigned) Photos in a java-recognisable format (jpg or png) are put in a directory called images. The size should be around 150 x 150.
