That would be ugly. Can you find anywhere that page is linked to and tell us so we can make it link to http://search.cpan.org/perldoc?Catalyst::Manual::Tutorial instead, since that already shows them in the right order. > There is also an open ticket for - maybe - this kind of work > http://dev.catalyst.perl.org/ticket/82 The trac ticket system is dead and turned off, please ignore it. > I just think how can I help in this process of improving documentation > for my favorite framework.

Funny, several of the people who've come to Catalyst from rails said one of the reasons they moved was because the rails doc .... sucks. Mostly what you're complaining about is presentation though and where things are referenced from. If you send a message to catalyst-dev@ asking for it one of the wiki gnomes will give you access to that and you can re-arrange the order stuff's displayed in to your heart's content. -- Matt S Trout Need help with your Catalyst or DBIx::Class project?
