This would have two main advantages: 1. You could go from one definition to a related definition simply by clicking on it (in ocamlbrowser you must navigate to the definition you're interested in each time). 2. You could go back to the definitions you just looked at by hitting the "back" button in the browser. Perhaps an ocamljs guru could knock this up?! :-) -- Dr Jon D Harrop, Flying Frog Consultancy Ltd. http://www.ffconsultancy.com/products/?e
