Hi ugajin,
I'm not quite following what your concerns are. You want the html
pages to be available for users, but you don't want the users to download
them?
I guess you could upload the tutorial to the InkSpace Tutorial
category. And then I think it's fairly typical to have a readme file
together with an extension or any other program. Maybe the readme file
could have a link to the tutorial?

All best,
brynn

Hi Maren,

Yes, I am referring to the html documentation; specifically the
'tutorial.html and 'examples.html' pages. The viewBox... extension files,
together with the readMe file will be downloadable. The structure that I
have made, seems to work OK, and I would like to keep links in the
readMe.html file for the example.html and tutorial.html pages, so ideally
these pages need to be hosted, but not by me.

I have considered building a local structure, and adding the said supporting
docs to the zip file. Indeed, this had been my initial approach, but as the
supporting documentation grew, I began to have doubts, and to ask, why do it
this way? Including them in the zip file would no doubt 'work', but it is
not the approach that I would like to take.

Further, why should anyone have, or want to download files that a) they may
not want, and/or b) simply in order to access, and/or peruse them? I am not
against anyone downloading them per-se (e.g. if they chose to do so) and, I
am less worried about users breaking any relative links. I guess, I am
simply not intending the supporting documents to be downloadable.

I don't think requesting more space is an answer.

Thanks for considering matters.

Kind regards.

Hi u,

I'm not entirely sure which specific documents you are referring to.

If you mean external documents, that you don't control (the manual, for
example), then you could just add a link into the README file and / or
into the description text for the extension.

If you mean your own html documents, why don't you just add them to the
zip file? You could make a subfolder 'documentation' or similar, if you
like.

If you need more space for uploading everything, this list is the place to
request it.

Kind Regards,
Maren
