Reworked jquery-based document menu is attached.

Untar will produce bin/ and html/
cd .../html
cp /path/to/htmldocs/* .
../bin/add_js.pl *html

The contents should be on almost all relevant pages, and:
- tested on FF3.5, IE7, Opera 9.x
- expanded if screen width > 800px, closed otherwise
- contain all page-headings and sub-page headings
- highlight the current page in the tree
- provide tooltips for entries that are too wide for the panel

Issues:
- slow to reload on each page (can be fixed)
- based on hacked-together perl (this is temporary)
- layout is perhaps a bit cramped?

This last one is tricky. I can space it better if I can assume as 1280px
width screen. I can space it better if I have a menu that slides out and
  covers the whole page. Having the menu items wrap onto a second or
third line just didn't work. At least I couldn't find a way that made it
clear where the separating line between items was without cluttering the
whole menu horribly. Settled on not indenting too much, no word-wrap and
tooltips.

Comments/suggestions/rotten tomatoes?

Richard,

First, many thanks for doing this.

I don't see any comments having been made. I guess either everyone has been busy or they all think it's just fine (or both) :-)

I think you are definitely on the right track. I will use this, committed or not. But I'd like to see it finished and committed. Can you fix the 'slow to reload' problem - that is a bit of a pain. I'm not so worried about the use of perl to add the script calls - you need perl to build the docs anyway.

It wasn't terribly cramped for me.

I'm not sure everyone will want this. Maybe we need to provide "with-js-menu" and "without-js-menu" makefile target variants for html.

cheers

andrew
