RE: Attribution to MSDN on JavaScript pages

Hi Phistuck.

You bring up a great point, so let me rephrase:

Representing Microsoft, we’d be fine if the topics referenced the top-level JavaScript reference page for attribution. The navigation there is adequate for developers to get to the source page and this satisfies any requirement we have as donor.

As a member of this community, however, I agree wholeheartedly that linking back to the original page is a far superior experience. Unfortunately, I do not know if the URL for each data has been preserved and can readily be imported (I don’t think they were; that was the reason that the HTML, CSS, and other pages Microsoft donated point to the Internet Explorer API Reference page).
