RE: Latest and greatest

Hi Brian,

Perhaps a slight misunderstanding, the .html is supported in the text
"glyph", not in the text window.

The text glyph is accessed via the toolbar, and allows you to embed text
(and HTML) into the imagery. So this ~may work for our needs, i.e.  you
could have an arrow pointing to some feature with some text, and that text
could be a pointer to the edu modules<a href=.....></a>. The IDV is now
running JVM 1.5 so it is hopeful that it will automatically fire up
browser of choice (after configuration). <img src> also works :)

Not as grand as in the text "note" window, but if we can link to the edu
modules from the imagery, it may even be more powerful (glass half full
kinda perspective).

Hope this helps,

Jeff
