I agree with all of this. But I think that having a tree control component is still useful:
I didn't mean to suggest otherwise. My experience with this was a) fiddling around with Javascript and DOM (IE and Netscape) to get things to work. b) making my own tree by hand. Basically both of these were hacks and I'm happy to see a) done in a professional way. b) was really tedious and I saw the need to automate this process which seemed very much in the spirit of Boost Book (which I havn't spent any time with either) Basically we've got a) we need a)+b). I'm happy to leave the details to you guys as you know much more about it and it seems that there is broad agreement on the basic idea. Robert Ramey
