This is fourth beta that is a part of a major revision of the PhpGedView, which is an online genealogy application (requiring a web host, PHP, and some kind of database). This version added some features for working with the Random Media Block as well as allowing click on chart images, random images, etc.
PhpGedView parses GEDCOM 5.5 genealogy files and displays them on the internet in formats and charts that you are familiar with. It also allows relatives to edit their genealogy online and collaborate together on their research.

GDBI 13.1 (Gedcom DataBase Interface)
January 3, 2006
GDBI - Gedcom DataBase Interface, has been updated to version 13.1. GDBI is a “genealogy program integrator”. If you are using PhpGedView, you can use it as a family tree data editor on your local computer (”more convenient and powerful than the web interface”). If you are a Java developer, it’s a GEDCOM API that allows you to write GEDCOM editors and generate reports for several databases. This release adds new features when working with PGV.
Release Notes:
This is the first version with PGV database caching. You can specify a local directory where it creates a local copy in an FSDB database, which is also a new feature. After the records are cached, you can connect with the “Offline” option to use the local copy without connecting to PGV.
Note: PGV = PGV-View - a version of PhpGedView that only allows for showing your genealogy data.
It can be downloaded here (sourceforge.net).
