Prepare Structure for HTML Reports

HTML reports are formated with CSS. The CSS files must be located in a CSS directory in the parent directory of the HTML file.

Decide on a location for storing your reports eg: '/home/user/foo' then create you CSS directory as '/home/user/foo/css' and create one or more dirctories for your reports eg: '/home/user/foo/menus' '/home/user/foo/orders' etc...

Download the CSS files into your CSS directory


demiPOS

demiPOS is a modified version of the nTPV POS package

It has been modified to allow for different Tax rules and uses a modified database schema to fit in with demiCHEF, there is also a reasonable translation into English, plus a number of other small changes.

Requires demiCHEF and the gdchart package and development headers to be installed and further the compilation and installation is similar to that of the original. If anyone has any directions as to installation on a clean system then I can post the information here.

Sources are also at Sourceforge
