Need to do more linking, add icons/colors for different types of notes, and see about Jquery popups. Don't know much about your DBIO stuff, so just used standard MySQL functions.

I also got majorly distracted while messing with the page, and did some... rework to it's design. Started out as a matter of fixing orphaned tags(open without close, or vice-versa), of which there were quite a few, and it morphed into 'how can I make the page and code look better'. I think it looks nice, and I optimized for 1280x1024 screens(which seem to be the base-level standard, at RF and elsewhere).

Check how I coded it, with the indentation of the HTML. This may be slightly alien looking, but it makes keeping which tags are open a snap, and makes it a lot more readable (indentation and linebreaks come through in the HTML to the browser).

At this point you should be able to:

1. Create a note, from the view_reg page -- both global and event-specific notes.
2. See the note on the view_reg page, as appropriate.
3. Click on the name of note creator, to be taken to his view_reg page. (I'm a great proponent of drill-down).

Upgrading

Before starting an upgrade, we recommend that you backup your Convention Master database and files.

To perform the upgrade, run a Subversion update in the folder that contains your Convention Master installation:

$ svn up /path/to/convention_master

When this has completed, log in to the staff console [yoursite.com/console] with an account that has the "Perform DB and System Upgrades" permission to automatically trigger any pending schema updates. DO NOT FORGET THIS STEP, otherwise it will leave your install in a locked upgrade state.

For fuller/more complete information on upgrading your Convention Master installation, please see our upgrade documentation.
