is there an html/javascript wizard who can help me with some issues
concerning a future version of context (not related to html
generation at all)
I'm willing to help with whatever skills I have. I programmed the
site http://columbiamedicine.org/education/clean.shtml. It uses
javascript for the collapsable menus (and a whole bunch of godawful
javascript for adding articles to the site), though I'm not a wizard
by any stretch.
as you know, taco and i are working on luatex
in the process i rewrite parts of context, for instance the mp to pdf
converted, but also thinsg that are not yet there
for the moment we keep this low profile
- we need occasional scoops for tex conferences (where we talk)
- we operate within the context test-bed because that permits us to throw away code withou tthe need to bother about users who already depend on it (sometimes a problem for pdftex which inhibits development of cleaner interfaces)
- we don't want to be bound by existing macro packages, sentiments etc
- it works faster this way
so, the next few months i will involve more people in this development, so that next year we can introduce context mkiv in a more or less workable and stable way
to the html ...
we're playing with overloading error messages and such
the attached page shows a prelim debug page
this one is generated on the fly using template files and embedded lua
the problem is that i want only one page, i.e. such a page should replace the
current one in the browser, i played a bit with javascript but cannot get it
working (indirect launch and such)
i attached the file
so the problem is:
- we do a call start blabla.html
- that should replace the current page
- or better, the page with the same name
