Does anyone have any ideas on how to provide end-users with table field help or documentation.
Currently, I have a database table containing my documentation for each php table - with an indexed field containing the filename - which corresponds to the relevant documentation required for whatever add/edit/delete page the user is currently viewing.
The tedious way I am adding this to my generated code is to edit each generated page that I want documentation on, adding in a: require_once("documentation.php"); line at the top of each page (that contains a database lookup passing the current page name to WHERE page_name=xxx), and a function call I wrote that neatly displays the first 250 characters of the "help file" for that page in a table, with a MORE button to unhide the rest.
It works quite well, however whenever I regenrate my code, of course I lose this....
Any suggestions on implimenting this or any other ideas for displaying help (perhaps a mouseover on the fieldname?!?)
Thanks
