Dear All,
There was a discussion a couple weeks ago about the javascript menu in Robert Ramey's serialization docs. I suggested making a menu component available Boost-wide and testing it on a large number of browsers to address portability issues. I've written a preliminary version, documented here:
and downloadable from here (its a bit large because it contains a bunch of screenshots):

You can see the control in action here:
I've verified that it works -- with varying levels of functionality - - on 26 browsersincluding some antiques such as IE3.02.
Overall the tree looks good, but how do I capture the URL for the current page? (I was able to do it with right mouse on the right pane, open in new window/tab). However, is there a way to get the address bar to point to the right frame instead of the left pane so that the current URL is immediately accessible? My major objection to frames is that I can't see and grab the current URL... Jeff
