</p> <p>I don't have the experience, that printed documentation is more accurate or up2date than online help provided with products. Most of the printed books represent a situation &gt; 1/2 year ago, when published (which is a long time for a fast proceeding product like DotNetNuke) and you aren't able to obtain updates every few months.</p> <p>BTW: I am currently working on documentation of TokenReplace - though this is suspended atm, until I finished my sessions for Open Force Europe :-))</p>

Hello Sebastian.. Love your html :)

I am favor of online documentation. I just said that Online help as it is implemented never is accurate.

Dont forget my question bout NAV skinoject.

if you are talking about "online Help" menu item in module and core, the problem is, that this is edited by a single Core Team member (hard-working Lorraine) and due to the number of changes every release (and the number of modules), this is a real Sisiphos task. Usually Module help is more up2date, cause it is provided by the project team / developers themselves - if they take care of it and are able of an appropriate writing style. A dilemma, not easy to solve...

Regarding you NAV question, I am not the right person to asnwer, since I am not a skinner, sorry.

I know Lorraine do a good work but she cant make it accurate even if it was a team of 1000 Lorrains ith this implementation of online help.

Regarding NAV its a scandal its not documented in my opinion.
