Where can I find a Delphi online help better than the integrated one?

Is ther any other documentation about delphi than the integrated help.

Something like the http://java.sun.com/j2se/1.5.0/docs/api/ or the http://msdn.microsoft.com/en-us/library/

...just for delphi.

Because imho the delphi help is badass bad.

I really like Delphi Basics:

http://www.delphibasics.co.uk/

So much so, that I paid him the $9 for the download version (and included a little extra), even though I usually use the online version anyway.

~~~

The only other one I keep a shortcut to on my desktop is the Delphi Wiki:

http://delphi.wikia.com/

It has a lot of valuable stuff, and goes into good depth on many topics as thousands have contributed to it. It's quite comprehensive, but will always have some missing parts - mainly because the world's Delphi knowledgebase is growing faster than anyone or any wiki can keep track of.

~~~

Then don't forget that books still (even in this online age) provide excellent reference tools that you can leisurely read and learn from.

My favorite Delphi author is Marco Cantu, and his books are excellent. I've started with Mastering Delphi 3 many years ago, and then went on to Mastering Delphi 5, Borland Delphi 2005, Delphi 2007 Handbook and Delphi 2009 Handbook.
