Great work, Josh!

But we seem to have two competing (and very similar) efforts going on. There is Björnke's very nice BvG Docu stack that was recently patched by Andre to allow web notes to be posted and displayed in the stack. See <http://andregarzia.com/docuwebnotes.html>. I've been using Andre's patched version, and it's really quite slick.

Would there be a way to combine the best of both worlds, to let Björnke/Andre's project work with your online database, Josh? Björnke's stack, being older, is farther along than yours, and that would free you up to concentrate on the web/backend pieces.

I think this "proof-of-concept" experiment has now crossed the line into "no going back" :-)


I have uploaded a stack here:

http://revcoders.org/resources/revcoders_db_api.rev.zip


It is a Revolution stack that:

- filters a list of Revolution dictionary terms with each character typed in a search box

- once a term is clicked on in the list, grabs the Revolution Open Access Dictionary term definition from the database along with all user-provided tips and code snippets for that term

- allows you to add your own helpful tip, code snippet, caveat or link to your stack or webpage relevant to that term

(try one of the below, those are the ones with comments so far)

    *  vScroll
    *  create folder
    *  binaryEncode
    *  binaryDecode
    *  pendingMessages

---------------------

features:

 - a scrolling group of groups

 - a "live search" text box

 - a smart scrollbar that turns on when needed

 - a demonstration of seamless interaction with a remote database

Hope you enjoy it.

PLEASE take a moment and add just one helpful tip or nifty code snippet to a term, it would be a valuable experiment to see how this could work.

There is plenty yet to be done... please reply if you have suggestions for next steps, or what could be done to make it more useful than what you're using now, or would like to help.

Hello Friends,

I've patched BvG Docu + Webnotes to work with my new server. Those
wanting to see this system working need to download again, my new
server uses a different scheme for the FTP users so the old login
can't be used.

More info and download at: http://andregarzia.com/docuwebnotes.html

Please take note that all the documentation stuff is done by BvG, I
just did the webnotes part. This system is naive, we could do
something better if we worked together.

:-D

anyway, it is a cool way to share information. There are some test
notes in there...
