Hi,
Does there exist a web service which, given a name of DOM interface or
method would return a URI (including anchor) pointing to the DOM
documentation for such interface or method, if available?
That is, I would provide the method name "className", and it would return:
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-2-HTML-20001113/html.html#ID-95362176
(this link is copied-pasted from the index page
http://www.w3.org/TR/2000/WD-DOM-Level-2-HTML-20001113/def-index.html)
or would redirect the browser to this URI.
I need to generate some documentation referencing DOM methods, so
being able to derive their documentation URIs from their names would
be of great help..
Thanks.
PS I might of course download all these index pages, and process them
extracting links and building name-anchor maps. But this means another
utility needs to be written which is better to be avoided.
