RE: [PHP] Online Document
I hate to say it, but the easiest way to maintain this might just be to do all of the hyperlinking from within Word, with its own function/buttons, etc, and then save the Word document as HTML. Yeah, it'll be bloated and crappy HTML, but it'll load into a browser. Then, when she needs to update it, she just updates the word document, and resaves it as HTML format in the web root... ---John Holmes... > -Original Message- > From: Glenn Antoine [mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED]] > Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 5:19 PM > To: [EMAIL PROTECTED] > Subject: [PHP] Online Document > > We are currently looking to put a very sizable document on a website so > that it will be easily.

Re: [PHP] Online Document
I would recommend applying a simple templating system to the file. Anything that needs to be extracted out of the page for navigation purposes will be enclosed in special characters such as a chapter title.. [:chapter = "CHAPTER 2: Beating a Dead Horse":]. A very simple script parses the file and extracts these strings to build an interactive Table of Contents. -Kevin - Original Message - From: "Glenn Antoine" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, July 15, 2002 3:19 PM Subject: [PHP] Online Document > We are currently looking to put a very sizable document on a website so > that it will be easily.
