It seems like the incredibly cool option would be for the auto- complete function to read one's tag tree/graph/whatever and, when a tag that has been completed/selected belongs to more than one parent/ bundle/supertag/whatever, to display a little drop-down box, maybe with check-boxes, showing those parents/bundles/etc and allowing the user to narrow the selection. That might be a prohibitively large programming task or it might be too query-intensive. The simpler option might be to have (or have as an ajaxy show-this-now option) a box with the whole tag tree/graph/ whatever with checkboxes that just gets called once and processed once. --ER _______________________________________________ dw-discuss mailing list [email protected] http://lists.dwscoalition.org/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/dw-discuss
