I WAS JUST WONDERING IF THE BOOKS PRESENTED HERE ONLINE ARE THE SAME AS THE REVISED MONGOOSE EDITIONS?

No, the versions printed here are made from the original printing(s). In many cases Mongoose has actually been using the versions printed online here as a guide (including information footnoted here, spelling/grammar corrections, etc.).
However, the only book (thus far) that differs significantly is the first book, which Joe Dever completely retconned and rewrote. The final four books are still being written, so they will be limited to Mongoose, and each Mongoose edition aside from book one comes with an exclusive mini-adventure written by a guest author.

The Mongoose editions also have various minor revisions, such as lowering the stats of certain opponents to make the books less difficult.

Why do I get the feeling people are shouting when they type in caps?  |

So does that mean PA won't be publishing the last 4 (unwritten) books?

Not until many years in the future when the Mongoose editions have gone out of print, I'd guess. |
