Note: This module is now abandoned.
This module allows an authorized user/administrator to modify the tree structure of a book using a graphical interface and then update the database to reflect those changes. At some point the Javascript in the background that creates the GUI will be updated, but for now all you can adjust are the parent child relationships of the books (including splitting a book into pieces, and merging books) and not the relative weights of the pages.
As this module is still experimental, you should not use it on a production site, use it on your sandbox sites until we have ironed out all the bugs.
There have been some major updates on this module. It now includes a link on an Organic group homepage (assuming you are using the partner module, Book Expand) that allows users to edit their books using the GUI. Very useful. Also, there has been a complete rewrite of the GUI which makes it much more user friendly. Check out the demonstration!
One major outstanding issue remains before I commit my most recent changes, which is the failure of the BookGUI script in Internet Explorer. Until I resolve that issue, the old version of this module will remain all you can download.
Note: In Drupal 6, the functionality of this module (although none of the actual code) will be included in Drupal Core. Hence, there is no point in updating this module for Drupal 6.
