However, is there a way to get the address bar to point to the right frame instead of the left pane so that the current URL is immediately accessible? My major objection to frames is that I can't see and grab the current URL...
I agree. See http://tinyurl.com/3sdu6.
Thanks, for the pointer on sync. I didn't read all the rationale. I wish I could come up with a more intuitive name -- it didn't hit me at first what sync was for. Anyway, I was using Firefox 0.9.1 on Linux. I tested a couple more browsers: Galeon 1.3.12 and Epiphany 1.0.7 automatically sync -- very cool! Konqueror 3.2.0 does not :(
Would it be possible to do the sync automatically via the JavaScript control? It could be possible to do something like: <a href = "javascript:tree.load('id.1.2')">Chapter 1.2: Cool Stuff!</a> With load performing the URL redirection and synchronisation. I am not sure how portable this would be, but having it done automatically would mean that there would be less confusion and a simpler interface.
Oh, and I'm of course in support of boost-book initiatives to generate these capabilties -- after all, transformation to various forms is the whole point of getting the docs into xml...
