The python classes are used to encapsulate different types of bibliographic data, and provide methods for manipulating that data. The editing classes are used to parse data that was entered into the editing forms (and have been encoded in HTML variables), can load data from the database, and can convert data into XML format. The data in the class is a complete collection of information from one of the central database tables, without the need to dereference any foreign keys. The bibliographic classes allow applications to aggregate large amounts of data (like an author's bibliography), and contains methods that allows the bibliography to print itself, or to perform searches based on user filters.

Introduction

The python classes are used to encapsulate different types of bibliographic data, and provide methods for manipulating that data. The editing classes are used to parse data that was entered into the editing forms (and have been encoded in HTML variables), can load data from the database, and can convert data into XML format. The data in the class is a complete collection of information from one of the central database tables, without the need to dereference any foreign keys. The bibliographic classes allow applications to aggregate large amounts of data (like an author's bibliography), and contains methods that allows the bibliography to print itself, or to perform searches based on user filters.
