As I don't want to learn all Docbook tags, I tried to install the Vex editor as
a plugin in Eclipse (Ganymede == 3.4) but it's not working (and is a known issue). So I found a solution here
http://www.nabble.com/Re%3A-Error-message-when-starting-eclipse-w-VEX-plugin-p13036761.html It works but when I load it asks me about the version of docbook documents I
use. I searched in ML but I'm not quite sure about it, any ideas ? BTW it looks like using OpenOffice (with a plugin?) could be a better solution http://xml.openoffice.org/xmerge/docbook/UserGuide.html...

What I want to do is to put tips like that
http://markmail.org/message/73e5wtnb2m4w4ikw in the online help. For instance
this one would be at the page https://localhost:8443/webtools/control/runService. I'm sure this would be a great benefit for everybody

Thanks

Your input is required:

You probably noticed the big update? My Apologies for its size but i think it is worth the effort.

To understand quickly where I am talking about, upgrade your local version, reload your seed data (or run ant-install) and go to: content -> content -> navigate -> documents -> 'apache ofbiz in html format'

Then you will see the xml document in file: /applications/commonext/documents/ApacheOfbiz.xml in html format.

The pdf format does not yet work...(Anybody can help: see comment in svn)

----------------------------------------------------------------------- The proposal is to move the documents from docs.ofbiz.org to the ofbiz content manager.

----------------------------------------------------------------------- What are the advantages?

1. No external system required for documentation 2. The content of the internal help files can be used within the documentation 3. The documentation always has the same version as the system (It is part of it) 4. The content is stored in a internationally accepted 'DocBook' (www.docbook.org) format 5. The content can be easily presented in the selected visual schemas (To be implemented)

What is the opinion of the community?

Regards, Hans
