* Moved routines for calculating objects to be output so they can be part of default list building classes. * Replaced person link routine with one that takes into account whether there is a page for the person. * Included repository reference media type and call number in the 'Repositories' section of the relevant source instead of the Repository page. * Implemented a generalised back reference function to display the 'References' section of all pages. This recursively displays references till one is found for which a page exists. * Removed list of people and families from heading of the event pages as these are now in the 'References' section. * Fixed bug "0005968: Narrated Web Site not copying Source Citations files such as jpg or pdf docs to web site" and "0005946 GRAMPS failed to insert jpeg image into proper place for an event" by displaying a thumbnail for citation media in the 'Source References' section (with a link to the media page) svn: r20769
