So, I am working on the new bug tracker and it’s looking good so far. It’s been a lot easier to deal with JavaScript and XML than I thought it would be. So, anyway, what I’ve got now is an AJAX call to get the bugs for the project in XML form, and then JavaScript sorts the XML, converts it to table rows, and then displays it. You can click a column header to sort by that column and click it again to reverse the sorting order. The priorty cell is color coded with higher priorities getting closer to red. The deadline cell is given a bright red background if it is overdue and a yellow background if it is due in the next 2 weeks. I’ll be tweaking the look a bit more but for now I am happy with it.

Here’s a peek:
