I love the diagrams. They are much easier to read (for me) than plain text. To make them searchable, perhaps alt-text would suffice?

Richard Hipp <[EMAIL PROTECTED]>: > http://www.sqlite.org/draft/syntaxdiagrams.html > http://www.sqlite.org/draft/lang.html The diagrams are nice and for some people probably easier to read than plain text BNF* syntax. Although, images have two disadvantages: 1) web search engines cannot extract and therefor not index its content 2) the neither the browser's in-page search function nor a desktop search engine or a grep like tool work either. For example a search for "sqlite SELECT NATURAL JOIN" on your favorite web search engine will list you "http://www.sqlite.org/lang_select.html"; hopefully in one of the first search results. As e.g. "natural" is not in the text content of the new draft (http://www.sqlite.org/draft/lang_select.html) it won't be indexed if this draft become the reality. I suggest to offer both, the images and the BNF syntax.
