sounds good :) found trailmix (internotes wasn't compatible with my firefox version)... was thinking smething a little more "web2py app-ish" in the sense that i would be able to parse/view routing history with maybe something where I could search by "stop-over" (a semantic approach ?) like:
{{highlite( 'text that we highlite on page' )}} --> no worry, doesn't exist, just invented ;) {{BACK()}} --> action= BACK button so the app records a users navigation path as this type of dict {0: {1: '{{highlite( "web2py maps a URL of the form:" )}}', 2: {3: '{{highlite( "Dropdown(db.table.field") )}}', '{{BACK()}}';'{{highlite("tablename',record_id")}}' }, ... actual URLs are stored in a DB {0 : 'http://web2py.com/ book', 1 : '/book/default/chapter/04', 2 : '/book/default/docstring/DAL', 3 : '/plugins/default/sortable/' 4 : '/plugins/default/sortable/xxxxxxx'} so, then I could retrace my steps by either typing with auto-fill or maybe the app is smart enough that we can start typing any folder name, then calculates permutations and offers the user a choice if many are possible (or through a UI like a drop-down system/or something a little more animated) navObject = navigation.startPage('http://web2py.com/book') returns 0 we type: cha... DAL sort... sort navObject.1. 2. (3/4 ? =) 3. 4 we get: 0.1.2.3.4 --> retraced browsing path where we stop at any point and see what we highlighted on that page without re-reading the entire page for small page that we were interested in (this may be good for the lazy like me) Anyways... just letting a thought come to a conclusion... thanks for all the info!
