Object: knowledgebase

A knowledgebase needs one knowledgebase object to define various global properties:

If this knowledgebase makes SQL queries then the ODBC source must be specified.
The remainder of the properties apply when a knowledgebase is used in a web (HTML) environment. In this case, it needs HTML bits to define how the questions and solutions are formatted.

These are:
