⬆️Got a new idea for family tree styling

See it here, at least most of that idea. We now have grandchildren, children, siblings, parents, grandparents, and great-grandparents all on the same chart and it looks ok. I've also added little arrows to the top of the top level to show you can traverse further up the tree that way, and will do the same if you can go further down the tree. You can go further by clicking on the siblings for example - I did try adding children of siblings in too, it works, but it makes the page far too wide. Click around, the chart is already far too wide if someone has 10 loads of children...

I've not added the spouse in yet, but that should be fairly simple, as long as someone has only one spouse. In cases where people have two families with two spouses it's complex, have to just pick one and only show that family.

I still haven't updated about the weekend yet, and I did LOADS. Just been too obsessed with this family tree css every waking minute.
