Yes, I will need to provide searching capabilities.
Basically, I'm creating an online referencing system with a db backend.
A user will be able to search for a manual, and/or browse to a
particular section of the manual.
It's similar to the online PHP manual...at least, in concept.
So, in the long run, which will be more beneficial:
1) HTML code inside the db fields?
or
2) HTML URL inside the field?
