Excellent. Thanks for the info. (I took a baby step in this direction with the Quick Add Child module, but my approach is probably a little crude for a core module). cheers, -tao Peter Wolanin wrote:

Tao, this is exactly the point we're heading for- the new "book" module should primarily provide a UI and navigation elements, while all the heaving lifting in terms of maintaining the hierarchy will be done with the code and tables defined in menu.inc.

It seems like the only things book does that menu doesn't is put in the cute next/prev and children links, which would be easy enough to add in. Other than that it is just UI.
