[TxMt] command to web and back

[Lawrence Curtis]

I will, if it works ill not just keep it internal but release it to  
the world, i find myself in a constant battle against developers  
especially in my team to keep the straight and narrow, being a  
standards zealot i find myself constantly screaming at people for not  
doing things the right way or simply copying bits from one website or  
anouther.  Infact it drives me mad the way that people feel the need  
to rewrite the xhtml and basic css each time as i know they've done  
it before let alone myself, this is the case when it comes to news  
engines and all sorts of ecommerce apps that we write.

The idea is that they start a project and run this baby and it starts  
spitting out a site skeleton with some basic set of tick boxes of  
requirements, i figured it wont take me long to write a modular  
script that can pull in bits and bobs of script to mashup together a  
basic site so thats the plan.  I was thinking when its all done to  
release it to the world in a sort of php/textmate developers guide to  
heaven.  So people can publish there modules and people can simply  
use them as bits to slot in.  I know this isn't the place to gather  
interest but none-the-less it seems the place to have a good rant.

Anyway....

Rather than just tell me the syntax if you could point me along to  
the js file that the object is based on or the docs or if failing  
that just tell me the command, that be great!

Thanks lots!
