[seqfan] Re: from Steven Finch about A087687

[Maximilian Hasler]

Neil,

I have 2 suggestions:

* the keywords could be wrapped into a hyperlink to display a short
explanation when the mouse goes over it,
e.g.
  <a href=# title="This is a multiplicative sequence">mult</a>,
  <a href=# title="This sequence has no negative terms">nonn</a>,
  <a href=# title="This sequence has no terms beyond those listed
here">full</a>,
etc.

* the word "KEYWORD" could also be hyperlinked, to lead to a page of
explanations
  <a href="/~njas/sequences/eishelp2.html#RK" title="Click here for
explanation of keywords">keyword</a>

* as I already suggested, it would be nice if the tabf kw could be
linked to the script displaying it properly using the sequence of row
lengths (if available).
  Note that an additional keyword of the form x*** where * is among
0-9A-Za-z could encode a link to A000001-A238329. (Following the tabf
kw, this would be the row lengths).

If you dislike the  blue colour and/or underlined appearence of such
links, it's easy to avoid this via a single line in the global
<style>.

Regards,
Maximilian
