Integrating ldap templates into metacat CVS tree

Modified code to fix bug# 1551 by adding a conditional statement.

Fixed some more bugs.

fixed error in input param

Added code to send showWgList, showSiteList, showOrganization, lsite and usite for one tmpl to other.

Changing 'Submit Entry' to 'Submit Dataset'

Fixed a bug in handling of associated parties.

Fixed the bug described in 1671. The bug came into picture, when no keyword type is suggested for a particular keyword. This resulted in ignoring of that row of data.

Modifications to the registry to support the new ESA skin. Factored out some of
the configuration-specific code into properties that are set in the various
cfg files in the skins. New properties in the cfg files are lsite, usite,
showSiteList, showWgList, showOrganization. These now need to be set in every skin...

Fixed a bug in an earlier commit

Made changes to fix bug# 1303 and 1367.(Both are related)
Following variables can now be specifieD from the cfg file to control behaviour of the skin: hasKeyword, hasMethod, hasSpatial, hasTaxonomic and hasTemporal. Following two also can be used: spatialRequired and temporalRequired

fixed a bug in a previous commit.

Made changes to fix bug# 1388.

Replaced text field with drop down menu which lists all months and days.

Changes made to fix bug# 1302

Made changes to fix 1301. Works fine with eml2 - need to check if works with emlbeta6.

Fixed bug# 1298

Made changes to control whether a skin wants to use keywords or not. Keywords probably will be used by all skins alsways. But similar changes can be made for Geographic Coverage or Temporal COverage to control whether a particular section of the insert data template needs to be shown or not. This can be controlled from .cfg file. For example, in nceas.cfg is you define hasKeyword = false, none of the templates will show the keyword part. (Unless, you are using NCEAS skin and you try to modify a document which already has keywords.)

Made changes in entryForm.tmpl so that it shows site list for specnet skin.

Made changes in the formatting display of Project list.

Minor changes to allow the registry to work in the knb skin, mainly in
how to treat the 'site' field. Now it is a free-text organization
field in the KNB skin. Need to test, install this on ecoinfo and link it
into the KNB web pages.

Fix for bug 1325. new javascript function added.

Bug 1301 - changes made for a repeatable add keyword button.

Made changes to fix bug# 1300: 1,2,3,4

Made changes to fix Bug 1311 1)

Added docid in edit form - Bug 1304

Made some hanges mentioned in bug 1297.

Made changes mentioned in Bug 1295.

deletaData.tmpl added a space in the end of docid. This led to an error while deleteing. This error was pointed out by Rick in his document.

Adjusted the text on the NCEAS repository page. Changed the project list
so that it now displays short title but uses the long title in the
entry. This was doen because the long titles were far too long to display
decently in the list (the box scrolled way off the right of the page).

Added skin for the UCNRS data registry based on earlier work. Minor
modifications to the templates to accomodate this. Fixed a validation
bug in the register-dataset.cgi, and removed an unnecessary Net::LDAP
login as well because the authentication is handled by metacat.

Changed label for NCEAS project group list on the web form.

Revised the registry guide to include descriptions of the new fields, and
made some minor formatting changes.

Added studyExtent and samplingDescription fields to the registry to accomodate
Sandy's request for a temporalDescription field. This is a little more than
she wanted, but it was needed to satisfy EML minimum requirements.

Added taxonomic coverage and authority fields, and fixed a bug in reentry
with the methods fields. Now we are collecting information on all of the
additional fields Sandy requested except for a general temporal description,
which doesn't fit neatly in EML. Will need to consider how to accomodate...

Added the ability to describe taxonomicCoverage to the registry. This
allows an arbitrary number of species or other taxa to be listed, and the
editing form can dynamically grow through a simple javascript approach
(also used in Methods). Need to test thoroughly, and need to test on...

Added geographic description to the fields of data collected, as it is
a required field and was being improperly defaulted to an empty string in the
XML document. This is a new field for all registries.

Modifications to add "Methods" collection to the data registry, and to
make the forms HTML 4.0.1 valid (in an attempt to figure out some of
the rendering and layout oddities I'm seeing).

New formatting and text for the NCEAS data registry.

Further changes to the registry scripts to support the NCEAS registry
with access to the project list fromthe admindb. Also, fixed a bug with
the script where creators were getting duplicated in the editing process
accidentally.

Updated registry further for NCEAS-specific needs. Confirm data template
now handles new wg field. Still need to write WG metadata into EML document.

Additional work on the NCEAS/AdminDB integration. Working Groups now
presented as a dropdown box for multiple selection. Need to write the
info to the XML file now and handle it in confirmation template.
