Node Reference Highlight

Node Reference Highlight (NRHI) is a module that provides the ability to highlight text in a node body and associate another type of node to it by reference. It provides permission and workflow style logic to allow for the following types of interactivity:

• Allow role X Y and Z to highlight for reference
• Allow role X to highlight content created by role Y
• Allow role Y to highlight all content

This will be dependent on 1 node type have another node type as a node reference field (CCK). Settings will allow you to select which node types can be highlighted on for association (like Pages can have Poll questions associated to them but not the reverse). This will respect the node reference logic as well. This project is being created for the Right-side-bar implemented in the ELMS distribution but should work for other purposes (hence abstraction).

ELMS Content has a sample definition function while ELMS Polls, ELMS Places and other features in ELMS have alter functions to add in the ability to highlight using them. All of these features can be downloaded external to ELMS if you want to just play around with the ELMS Features.

Here's videos from ELMS Alpha 6 showing what you can build with this API:
Creating a Glossary of terms
Associating Map items to content
Associating Timeline items to content
