Eric, The demox.ijs page starts as readonly and then when I click the option readonly menu, as you suggest and I did not notice likely because I am color defective, it changes from pale green to white. I had assumed for some reason that alternating clicks on the menu selection would toggle the state back and forth between editable and readonly, but that is not the case for me. Because Ric also used the term toggle and because I associate that term with an alternating state behavior, I thought maybe the intent was for an alternating state behavior. Can you clarify your intent, please?
And as of now, clicking on a demox.ijs readonly file, changes the state to editable. On Tue, Oct 19, 2010 at 8:19 PM, Eric Iverson <[email protected]> wrote: > I'm confused by your report.
