That would be a great improvement. Read up on the Wiki wiki documentation system as in use currently here: http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/doccenter/index.php?HowToUseWiki and here: http://phpwiki.sourceforge.net/phpwiki/ I think you should be able to use this to create the initial document, lock it, and allow users to add comments. The search function works quite well too, go here: http://dynapi.sourceforge.net/doccenter/ and type "setSize" in the search box, the result is not bad, if you could get your specific documentation showing up near the top of this list, and then instead of having the "edit text" link at the bottom, having an "add comment" link, you'd be set. All we'd need then would be to link the "search" box on the home-page to the doccenter. >the DynAPI page should > be > in itself a showcase of the power of the Library. > We should be using pop-up menus, sliding menus, pop-up layers with > content, > stuff like that, after all we want to show not only what can be done, > but > also that we USE it ourselves in our own site. That shouldn't be a problem, as I understood the current site uses html templates to display the data, so you could simply modify a template. We could have several user-submitted versions too. The only pre-requisite would be thorough testing to determine which browsers/Os' it was working on, and use server-side browser-sniffing to redirect unsupported browsers to the current page. Or keep the current page as default, and put links to the same page using DynAPI. > I know all of this sounds daunting, but I'm willing contribute my work > and > time for this idea. The people to get in touch with would be Jordi(admin) or Henrik Våglin [ [EMAIL PROTECTED] ] or Cameron Hart , currently (?) the site moderators.
