Hi Teus,

I am having several problems with the Resource Viewer.
  1. The red X button to close a resource tab doesn't seem to work. I am able to close resources from the File > Resources menu only.
  2. I'm not able to use files I have created which are based on Sabda pages.
    There doesn't seem to be any help about how to create new resources in the popup help. I have looked briefly on the on-line help, but haven't found an answer for my dilema. More below.
  3. I have had BE crash/freeze when trying to load my resources. This makes it impossible to Edit them.
I see now that one of my problems is that the Sabda example resource is based on a Sabda page like this:
http://www.sabda.org/sabdaweb/bible/verse/?b=60&v=2&version=drft_wbtc
Whereas the resources/wiki pages I have created are based on Sabda pages that are like this:
http://www.sabda.org/sabdaweb/bible/chapter/?b=60&version=drft_wbtc

Please see this link: http://docs.google.com/Doc?docid=dd8j5c9_16cv8z35&hl=in
That is the wiki page we have created for 1 Peter 1.
To create pages like this, I have simply copied the table found on  Sabda pages as in the second link above
and pasted them into GoogleDocs. I have gotten the GoogleDoc page above to show, and it hasn't crashed BE yet, but like the others I have tried, BE does not scroll the page.

Can you make another Sabda-based resource example based on the second link above-- one that will stay at the same url but scroll with the verses? Please send me the instructions for filling out the form.
Then, I assume that a similar method will work for GoogleDoc pages as well.

While on the topic: The resource viewer is fantastic. I think that there are great possibilities there. One problem I see is that many web pages are wide, and that is especially true of my GoogleDoc pages. It is hard to see some things on wide pages when BE's Resource Viewer is in a vertical column. It would be helpful if the tool window/resource viewer could be tiled horizontally over the whole width of the BE window. So I am suggesting that an option be created that would allow the user to toggle between the tool window tiled vertically (as now), and tiled horizontally.

Thanks,
Phil
