Initially from http://c2.com/cgi/wiki?HtaWikiBrowser, where I left a link to this page to avoid unnecessary double work. (By the way: my email answer from Yahoo bounced back due to a filter-program ?). Wiki seems to be better than email ;-) in this case.

Jump-lists should be read into an array via a file/URL, being used for help and a general jumpto(ar[i?) statement.

I don't like (place-consuming) buttons. What about a totally keyoperated interface. Within the Iframe's document editing via keymakros should be possible.

E.g. keying ".if" (without the quotes) should expand into: "if (|) { . }" , leaving the cursor at "|" for inputting the condition. Another special keypress should position the cursor at ".".

Being in Wiki-Edit-Mode, a special keypress should let jump from the current "Wiki Link Word" to its target wiki page opened in edit-mode.

Later on all the editing should be in a uniform Wiki:WysiwygWiki DHML edit component, letting the WikiBrowser do the dirty work of translating the HTML-code into the appropriate code of the target wiki pages (handled on different Wiki:WikiEngines).

Scripters from news:microsoft.public.inetsdk.programming.dhtml_editing are welcome.
