Never looked at the Mozilla source code myself, mostly do web development related work.
There is the Mozilla Documentation project (http://www.mozilla.org/contribute/writing/), but I feel more would improve it if was a lot easier to contribute (with Mozilla when you click 'edit this page' at the bottom of the page, the whole page is edited rather than just the content). Just go to http://www.mozilla.org/docs/dom/domref/ (which is what web developers are really interested in, not sure who maintains it) It seems far too general though. Commenting on documentation is often useful as well (as people post quirks they have found). Example: http://www.php.net/manual/en/language.basic-syntax.php MySQL has well developed documentation (that is also searchable): http://dev.mysql.com/doc/mysql/en/index.html With Mozilla you search the site using Google, and that searches everything (when all you may want to do is search Web Development related information). You can get a list of styles with a bit of JavaScript (styles start at azimuth), but from that you can't see how to use them, and what they are for. <script language="JavaScript" type="text/javascript"> <!-- var div = document.createElement("div"); document.write("<ul>"); for (i in div.style) { document.write("<li>"); document.write(i); document.write("</li>"); } document.write("</ul>"); //--> </script> _______________________________________________ mozilla-documentation mailing list [email protected] http://mail.mozilla.org/listinfo/mozilla-documentation
