Indeed, I have seen, and we should change that. Did you have any insight in terms of the defect I raised? I'm happy to create a patch for it, but I'm not very familiar with that part of the code, having used mainly the exposed API. And so, it would be good to get feel for the way to go about the change, before I change one of the most crucial parts of the whole library! And also whether the other drivers would suffer from the same problem.<div>

Just wondering if JSword provides a way of storing user information such as favourite bookmarks, history, etc. on a user by user basis (i.e. for potential use in a web application). I have a database that I could use, but perhaps JSword already provides this?<br>

No. We have a bookmark mechanism planned but it is geared for a single user. As you have found, JSword is not friendly for multi-user use. We should change that.<br>
