# outlineBrowser

JavaScript code to display JSON outlines.

#### What it does

It reads a JSON file that looks like this and renders it as an expandable outline, like this.

#### What is a JSON outline?

1. It's a JSON object that contains a text value, any number of other scalar values, and an array named subs.  

2. Each object in subs conforms to rule 1. 

#### Where this code is used

I use this code in two places:

1. To render outlines for reading in liveblog.co. (Example)

2. To render outlines in rivers, to view outlines included in news items. (Example)

#### Demo app

Here's a link to the demo app on my server so you can see what outlinebrowserdemo.html looks like.

#### Updates

Saving and restoring expansion state. Two new routines, getExpansionState and applyExpansionState. The demo has been updated to support the feature. Here's the writeup on Scripting News.

#### Dependencies
