You can find the PhpGedView XML Report Template Documentation at [http://www.phpgedview.net/devdocs/pgvreports.php The PhpGedView Official Website].

An example of a custom report is this descendancy report at [http://genealogy.beakerboy.com/reportengine.php?ged=Nowaczyk.ged&action=setup&report=reports/descendancy.xml Kevin Nowaczyk's Site]

Some helpful hints:
*Anything between a <code><PGVRGedcom></code> tag will not display if the value of the id atribute does not exist


<PGVRGedcom id="DEAT">This person died</PGVRGedcom>

*To display the value of a second level attribute while the Gedcom context is set to a first level attribute, level="2" must be added to the <code><PGVRGedcomValue></code> tag. There is no mention of this XML attribute in the official documentation.

<PGVRGedcom id="BIRT">
<PGVRif condition="@PLAC!='''''''">
was born in <PGVRGedcomValue tag="PLAC" level="2" />
</PGVRif>
</PGVRGedcom>

*The reportengine.php code in version 3.3.5 (and most likely 3.3.6 and 3.3.7) has a few bugs which come into play when many <code><PGVRRepeatTag></code> tags are nested. There are times when two tags on the same line will cause them to not run or produce errors. Adding a line break between them will many times fix this.
