Allow different localization styles to use the same bibtex database on different pages

[i2000s]

Hi Martin,

It's me again! I haven't made any improvements to the package for a while, but I received a request from my people recently. They want to show some attractive images for publication entries on one page but no associated images on another page with the same bibtex file. I am thinking it might be necessary to call the localization files defined in two different files, say, bibtexbrowser.local.php and bibtexbrowser.local2.php for the two pages, respectively. Then within these two localization files, I can call different CSS files to display or not to display a new bibentry_image field, which includes an html code block to display images.

When I looked into the bibtexbrowser.php code, on lines 49 and 50, the bibtexbrowser.local.php file is hard-coded into the function. Since I am not sure how to make it flexible to accept customized *.local.php files and don't know if there is an easier way to implement the requested feature, I am resorting to you to give some pointers. I guess it's trivial to you to redefine the localization file calls in a couple of lines.

Let me know if you have time to implement this feature or just give me some guidelines.

Thanks!

Hi Qi, I don't have time now, so a pull request would be much welcome :-) --Martin

Could you give me some pointer? How would you like to solve it? I can give a try, but I haven't PHP code for a while.

On the top of my head ... I don't know :-)

I am no PHP programmer, but isn't it possible to reference the HTTP referer in bibtexbrowser.local.php? The file is simply included, so you should have full PHP functionality in there. The referer could tell you which page the user is currently viewing and depending on the (first part of the) URL, you could then configure different localization settings.

Good idea. Better than the referrer, the variable $_SERVER["SCRIPT_URI"] can be used to route.
