[Chameleon - HelpWidget] Rename widget to OnLineHelp Please rename HelpWidget to OnLineHelp. There is no need to have the word widget in the name.
If this is to be changed, the name should be "OnlineHelp", not "OnLineHelp".
I'm not sure I agree with OnlineHelp as the new name for this widget. Any comments on a new name? Unfortunately we cannot use Help since it seems to conflict with an internal name in PHP.
If this widget is a generalized Help widget then how about HelpCenter, Support or SupportCenter?
My vote is for HelpCenter.
if the point of the help widget is to display the information from <cham:onlinehelp><cham:onlinehelp> element from widget docs in a popup than the widget could be called Onlinehelp (which you have rejected) or HelpPopup. The help popup could as have some template configuration attribute request. I think this needs to be figured out. It is not totally clear to me. This <cham:onlinehelp> element information could be extracted using an xslt which could be a configurable option for the widget. or maybe not. :)
the purpose of the widget is to display the contents of the widget documentation, specifically the onlinehelp tag, in a template. The content of this tag is documentation oriented at an end user of an application, so it explains how to use a particular widget. The intention is that an application designer can create a help page as a chameleon template and embed the help text for various widgets in the template, giving control to the designer over the design, layout and other text in the help page. I don't think HelpCenter captures the idea that this is help on just one widget.
I don't think the help widget should be called "HelpCenter" Because of the new Help Viewer that Bill put together for the widget docs. The help viewer is more the center point of all documentation and help. Also the help viewer is not even a widget, but rather part of the chameleon itself. Which makes it more centeric to chameleon. The help widget should be used to bring help to chameleon applications. to bring help to the user. so until we figure out what the help widget is realy for, maybe the name can wait. ha, I just read pauls reply. I agree with paul
Doesn't the "HelpViewer" eliminate the need for any help widget? Or does this widget do more than simply display text? If I understand Paul correctly then perhaps this widget is actually a "HelpContent" or "HelpDescriptor" widget...
The new name for the HelpWidget will be EmbeddedHelp. :) please update widget.
Classes have been renamed along with associatedd language file. Assiging to Paul to move files in CVS.
Paul has fixed this.
Verified.
