I'm not against the idea of this use of javascript in particular, it 
works quite well.  What bothers me is that when you first come to it, 
unless you already know a lot about what the TEI is about, you have to 
expand the first level of all three sections.  Maybe the first level 
should be unexpanded to begin with?

This is fairly cool, and will now be used as an example in my 8min talk 
in the TEI session in DH. ;-)  Since I happen to be talking about 
URI-based pointing.  What I'd suggest: is there a way to make 
'xsd:anyURI' in the declaration a link to a page about this in a similar 
way, importing in the xsd description of what anyURI means and listing 
what datatypes are xsd:anyURI  (i.e. it isn't just data.pointer which 
are xsd:anyURI).

Only thoughts I had atm.
