+=head1 SYNOPSIS
 
-        @rows=();
+The main handler generates the navigational listing for the course,
+the other objects export this information in a usable fashion for
+other modules.
+
+=head1 OVERVIEW
+
+X<lonnavmaps, overview> When a user enters a course, LON-CAPA examines the
+course structure and caches it in what is often referred to as the
+"big hash" X<big hash>. You can see it if you are logged into
+LON-CAPA, in a course, by going to /adm/test. (You may need to
+tweak the /home/httpd/lonTabs/htpasswd file to view it.) The
+content of the hash will be under the heading "Big Hash".
+
+Big Hash contains, among other things, how resources are related
+to each other (next/previous), what resources are maps, which 
+resources are being chosen to not show to the student (for random
+selection), and a lot of other things that can take a lot of time
+to compute due to the amount of data that needs to be collected and
+processed.
+
+Apache::lonnavmaps provides an object model for manipulating this
+information in a higher-level fashion then directly manipulating 
+the hash. It also provides access to several auxilary functions 
+that aren't necessarily stored in the Big Hash, but are a per-
+resource sort of value, like whether there is any feedback on 
+a given resource.
+
+Apache::lonnavmaps also abstracts away branching, and someday, 
+conditions, for the times where you don't really care about those
+things.
+
+Apache::lonnavmaps also provides fairly powerful routines for
+rendering navmaps, and last but not least, provides the navmaps
+view for when the user clicks the NAV button.
+
+B<Note>: Apache::lonnavmaps I<only> works for the "currently
+logged in user"; if you want things like "due dates for another
+student" lonnavmaps can not directly retrieve information like
+that. You need the EXT function. This module can still help,
+because many things, such as the course structure, are constant
+between users, and Apache::lonnavmaps can help by providing
+symbs for the EXT call.
+
+The rest of this file will cover the provided rendering routines, 
+which can often be used without fiddling with the navmap object at
+all, then documents the Apache::lonnavmaps::navmap object, which
+is the key to accessing the Big Hash information, covers the use
+of the Iterator (which provides the logic for traversing the 
+somewhat-complicated Big Hash data structure), documents the
+Apache::lonnavmaps::Resource objects that are returned by 
+
+=head1 Subroutine: render
+
+The navmap renderer package provides a sophisticated rendering of the
+standard navigation maps interface into HTML. The provided nav map
+handler is actually just a glorified call to this.
+
+Because of the large number of parameters this function accepts,
+instead of passing it arguments as is normal, pass it in an anonymous
+hash with the desired options.
+
+The package provides a function called 'render', called as
+Apache::lonnavmaps::render({}).
+
+=head2 Overview of Columns
+
+The renderer will build an HTML table for the navmap and return
+it. The table is consists of several columns, and a row for each
+resource (or possibly each part). You tell the renderer how many
+columns to create and what to place in each column, optionally using
+one or more of the prepared columns, and the renderer will assemble
+the table.
+
+Any additional generally useful column types should be placed in the
+renderer code here, so anybody can use it anywhere else. Any code
+specific to the current application (such as the addition of <input>
+elements in a column) should be placed in the code of the thing using
+the renderer.
+
+At the core of the renderer is the array reference COLS (see Example
+section below for how to pass this correctly). The COLS array will
+consist of entries of one of two types of things: Either an integer
+representing one of the pre-packaged column types, or a sub reference
+that takes a resource reference, a part number, and a reference to the
+argument hash passed to the renderer, and returns a string that will
+be inserted into the HTML representation as it.
 
-        &tracetable(0,$firstres,'&','',0);
+All other parameters are ways of either changing how the columns
+are printing, or which rows are shown.
 
-# ------------------------------------------------------------------ Page parms

+Apache::lonnavmaps namespace. The following currently exist:

+The general info about the resource: Link, icon for the type, etc. The

-lonnavmaps provides functions and objects for dealing with the compiled course hashes generated when a user enters the course, and also provides the Apache handler for the "Navigation Map" button.
+=head1 Object: Apache::lonnavmaps::navmap
+
+=head2 Overview
 
-=head1 navmap object: Encapsulating the compiled nav map
+The navmap object's job is to provide access to the resources
+in the course as Apache::lonnavmaps::resource objects, and to
+query and manage the relationship between those resource objects.
 
-navmap is an object that encapsulates a compiled course map and provides a reasonable interface to it.
+Generally, you'll use the navmap object in one of three basic ways.
+In order of increasing complexity and power:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item * C<$navmap-E<gt>getByX>, where X is B<Id>, B<Symb>, B<Url> or B<MapPc>. This provides
+    various ways to obtain resource objects, based on various identifiers.
+    Use this when you want to request information about one object or 
+    a handful of resources you already know the identities of, from some
+    other source. For more about Ids, Symbs, and MapPcs, see the
+    Resource documentation. Note that Url should be a B<last resort>,
+    not your first choice; it only works when there is only one
+    instance of the resource in the course, which only applies to
+    maps, and even that may change in the future.
+
+=item * C<my @resources = $navmap-E<gt>retrieveResources(args)>. This
+    retrieves resources matching some criterion and returns them
+    in a flat array, with no structure information. Use this when
+    you are manipulating a series of resources, based on what map
+    the are in, but do not care about branching, or exactly how
+    the maps and resources are related. This is the most common case.
+
+=item * C<$it = $navmap-E<gt>getIterator(args)>. This allows you traverse
+    the course's navmap in various ways without writing the traversal
+    code yourself. See iterator documentation below. Use this when
+    you need to know absolutely everything about the course, including
+    branches and the precise relationship between maps and resources.

+=back
 
-Most notably it provides a way to navigate the map sensibly and a flexible iterator that makes it easy to write various renderers based on nav maps.
+=head2 Creation And Destruction
 
-You must obtain resource objects through the navmap object.
+To create a navmap object, use the following function:
+
+=over 4
+
+=item * B<Apache::lonnavmaps::navmap-E<gt>new>():
+
+Creates a new navmap object. Returns the navmap object if this is
+successful, or B<undef> if not.
+
+=back
+
+When you are done with the $navmap object, you I<must> call 
+$navmap->untieHashes(), or you'll prevent the current user from using that 
+course until the web server is restarted. (!)
 
 =head2 Methods
 
 =over 4
 
-=item * B<new>(filename, parmHashFile, genCourseAndUserOptions, genMailDiscussStatus): Binds a new navmap object to the compiled course representation and parmHashFile. genCourseAndUserOptions is a flag saying whether the course options and user options hash should be generated. This is for when you are using the parameters of the resources that require them; see documentation in resource object documentation. genMailDiscussStatus causes the nav map to retreive information about the email and discussion status of resources. Returns the navmap object if this is successful, or B<undef> if not. You must check for undef; errors will occur when you try to use the other methods otherwise.

+=item * B<getResourceByUrl>(url):
+
+Retrieves a resource object by URL of the resource. If passed a
+resource object, it will simply return it, so it is safe to use this
+method in code like "$res = $navmap->getResourceByUrl($res)", if
+you're not sure if $res is already an object, or just a URL. If the
+resource appears multiple times in the course, only the first instance
+will be returned. As a result, this is probably useful only for maps.
+
+=item * B<retrieveResources>(map, filterFunc, recursive, bailout):
+
+The map is a specification of a map to retreive the resources from,
+either as a url or as an object. The filterFunc is a reference to a
+function that takes a resource object as its one argument and returns
+true if the resource should be included, or false if it should not
+be. If recursive is true, the map will be recursively examined,
+otherwise it will not be. If bailout is true, the function will return
+as soon as it finds a resource, if false it will finish. By default,
+the map is the top-level map of the course, filterFunc is a function
+that always returns 1, recursive is true, bailout is false. The
+resources will be returned in a list containing the resource objects
+for the corresponding resources, with B<no structure information> in
+the list; regardless of branching, recursion, etc., it will be a flat
+list.
+
+Thus, this is suitable for cases where you don't want the structure,
+just a list of all resources. It is also suitable for finding out how
+many resources match a given description; for this use, if all you
+want to know is if I<any> resources match the description, the bailout
+parameter will allow you to avoid potentially expensive enumeration of
+all matching resources.

+resource objects will be references, and any non-references will 
+be the tokens described above.

+Also note there is some old code floating around that trys to track

+A resource object encapsulates a resource in a resource map, allowing
+easy manipulation of the resource, querying the properties of the
+resource (including user properties), and represents a reference that
+can be used as the canonical representation of the resource by
+lonnavmap clients like renderers.
+
+A resource only makes sense in the context of a navmap, as some of the
+data is stored in the navmap object.
+
+You will probably never need to instantiate this object directly. Use
+Apache::lonnavmaps::navmap, and use the "start" method to obtain the
+starting resource.
+
+Resource objects respect the parameter_hiddenparts, which suppresses 
+various parts according to the wishes of the map author. As of this
+writing, there is no way to override this parameter, and suppressed
+parts will never be returned, nor will their response types or ids be
+stored.
+
+=head2 Overview
+
+A B<Resource> is the most granular type of object in LON-CAPA that can
+be included in a course. It can either be a particular resource, like
+an HTML page, external resource, problem, etc., or it can be a
+container sequence, such as a "page" or a "map".
+
+To see a sequence from the user's point of view, please see the
+B<Creating a Course: Maps and Sequences> chapter of the Author's
+Manual.
+
+A Resource Object, once obtained from a navmap object via a B<getBy*>
+method of the navmap, or from an iterator, allows you to query
+information about that resource.
+
+Generally, you do not ever want to create a resource object yourself,
+so creation has been left undocumented. Always retrieve resources
+from navmap objects.
+
+=head3 Identifying Resources
+
+X<big hash>Every resource is identified by a Resource ID in the big hash that is
+unique to that resource for a given course. X<resource ID, in big hash>
+The Resource ID has the form #.#, where the first number is the same
+for every resource in a map, and the second is unique. For instance,
+for a course laid out like this:
+
+ * Problem 1
+ * Map
+   * Resource 2
+   * Resource 3
+
+C<Problem 1> and C<Map> will share a first number, and C<Resource 2>
+C<Resource 3> will share a first number. The second number may end up
+re-used between the two groups.
+
+The resource ID is only used in the big hash, but can be used in the
+context of a course to identify a resource easily. (For instance, the
+printing system uses it to record which resources from a sequence you 
+wish to print.)
+
+X<symb> X<resource, symb>
+All resources also have B<symb>s, which uniquely identify a resource
+in a course. Many internal LON-CAPA functions expect a symb. A symb
+carries along with it the URL of the resource, and the map it appears
+in. Symbs are much larger then resource IDs.

+some reason it is no longer completable (not open yet, successfully completed,
+out of tries, etc.). As an example, this is used as the filter for the
+"Uncompleted Homework" option for the nav maps.
