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!
Mart :)
