Is really very simple, Javascript has the capabilities of locating the OS day and number so you can just have a simple script giving the ammount of days left. H ere is a simple example on working the Javascript code with inkscape: http://eclipsesource.com/blogs/2012/07/03/wireframing-inkscape-javascript/ If you read the last section, you will see where it triggers actions by behaviours (element.style.fill = 'red'.) for te SVG style, and ( window.location='contact.svg') for the action. And a snippet of code for the 'days left': http://www.digioz.com/downloads/javascript/daysleft.html Remember embeded SVG work the same way HTML could work so you can do this serverside as well using PHP, Python or whatever get's interpret or spit out. If you are worried of browser incompatibilities there is a library that takes care of that: http://code.google.com/p/svgweb/ On Wed, Jul 17, 2013 at 12:41 AM, Frederic Muller - DFF < fred@digitalfreedomfoundation.org> wrote:
Thanks for your help but this looks way above my skills. Could you be kind enough to detail how we can use the Inkscape graphics without text and generate those 102 images with the script?
Note as well that different languages have different positioning of things, but I guess we can have 2/3 master templates and then just ask for translations.
Thanks.

This is a small snippet of code with SVG and strings. Of course doing a php echo (or python print) would be enough to put a dynamic date string instead of a static text. Go to the <text> node.

last year I recommend using a simple script in Javascript and SVG. This will allow to make one simple function and deliver on every language by just having an array of dialogs.
Hi Alexandro,
Thanks for your email! I remember we did look into the solution last year however we had some problems to write the javascript it may due to lack of technical knowledge. If you can help us to write this simple script that would be great :)
Thanks! Pockey
