Subject: Frames like HTML view of TOC and document
I'm new to the list, but a longtime (closet?) DocBook user. For a number of years one of the customizations that I've maintained is a script and javascript that permits a DocBook document to be viewed in a frames environment with the table of contents on the side, and the document next to it: 1. Intro | The main part of the document goes here 1.1 bla | and on and on. 2. Good stuff | + hidden toc part| Etc. | Having the toc always visible certainly makes navigating the document more pleasant. The toc can have sections collapse and expand etc. Looks very nice, but HTML frames implementation is undesirable. I started looking at converting my frames to CSS, but there are lots of issues: 1. Resizing browser frames is handled by the browser, CSS requires javascript. 2. CSS cross browser vagaries 3. The DocBook HTML structure is causing my css some gas. 4. etc. I started looking at various javascript frameworks to get the job done, then decided I should find out if someone has done something like what I'm attempting. I didn't find anything, so I'm asking. Anyone have something that provides good TOC navigation aids for DocBook documents viewed as HTML? Any better/ alternative ideas? Aaron.
