Not the Dropbox online cloud service, just the dropbox as in a search input field with a combobox for selecting which part of the documentation is to be searched. I clearly used the wrong word, sorry for the misunderstanding. > > There is absolutely no way to make that functionality without > > javascript, > > Nothing can justify sending users nonfree JS code, but it is > acceptable for a GNU package web site to send Javascript code provided > that code is free.

It is, therefore, licensed under GPL-2, but now that I've rechecked the code it does not visibly carry any license. It would probably be a good idea to ask doxygen to include some GPL header in every included JavaScript file. > The searchbox is the standard doxygen's searchbox which implements > documentation search in javascript to avoid having to have a search > engine on the server.

What is the relationship between this Javascript code > and doxygen.org? Those words suggest multiple possibilities. I think there is confusion as to which JavaScript is being talked about. The code mentioned here is the doxygen's JavaScript code for searching the documentations used by every documentation generated by doxygen (if user decides to use the search functionality which is on by default). -- GPG fingerprint: 9AFC0A4BD2CEF3D22CF6108196577BD3C105EDA4 Please read if you don't use GPG: https://emailselfdefense.fsf.org/
