2 years ago We've also been working on our reader views in xslt, it seems that this can be a repetitive process if you are using a large number of documents for your research. But it seems that everything is coming together nicely! I see that you have laid out your plans for constructing your graphs. My only question is how are you going to display them? It seems like there are going to be a lot of graphs on your webpage. Do you plan on having a drop-down menu of any sort or categorize them by a certain topic? I'm looking forward to the presentation on Friday!

Last week, our group spent most of our time creating xslt for a reading view, as well as wire framing some graphs for when it is time for us to analyze the results. Camryn worked on the xslt for the reading view, while Ashley and I focused on getting ideas for our graphs when the time comes to make them. Right now, we have decided that each artist will have two graphs each, one for comparing the difference in topics between the first and second album (we are going to try to see if a pie chart is viable in svg, otherwise it will most likely end up being a bar graph or something else), and we will also have a graph for tones between the two albums, which will be a groups bar graph with two groups, one for each album, and each group has a bar for each verse tone.
For next week, Ashley plans to create the tone bar chart for the artists, while also attempting to create a pie chart. Camryn plans to continue working on the reading view, and using the xslt on all the songs. I plan on creating some javascript to create a menu bar for our reading view on the site so users can modify their reading view to contain information they want to see (like only tones, or only topics).
