- Hey, I remember a while back someone suggested having certain standard
- links in the document (forw back up top). Instead of hardcoding these
- how about just having a control panel element that might work like this:
-
- <CONTROL>
- <UL>
- <LI> <A ...>Click here</A>
- <LI> <A ...>Drink me</A>
- <LI> <A ...>Go away</A>
- </UL>
- </CONTROL>
-
- Then a clever browser can do whatever it wants to render that section of
- code (the idea being that it could stick it in a window so it's always
- available for navigation). By default it can just render in place.
-
- This has the advantage of allowing us to experiment with different control
- structures. FBUT is ok for some documents but I can see applications where
- other navigation schemes would be useful (e.g., NSEW in maps).
-
- Any comments? Sorry if someone already "invented" this, I didn't see anything
- in the HTML+ DTD_ and wanted get peoples comments.
-
- BTW: I would like to give a big thanks to Dave Raggett for doing a great
- job on the HTML+ DTD_. From our random arguments and outrageous requets
- (tables, forms, ...) Dave has really pulled HTML+ together. Any idea when
- it'll be stable enough to start developing browsers for?

- Looking forward to the Workshop next month,
