Re: PHP Dashboard Widget

Thanks, Gabor,

I'm aware of the widgets that are available for Apple's Dashboard  
platform and I think mine offers something theirs don't.  By using a  
downloaded version of the documentation, my widget displays the  
reference information nearly instantly, rather than either  
downloading the needed page or kicking you out to a web browser.  In  
terms of features, it's very close to the Mac desktop application PHP  
Function Index.

Thanks for pointing me to the relevant info!  Looks like it'll be  
fine for me to redistribute an unmodified version of the docs.
