Well, after messing around with Forrest for a few months I thought I would
actually build a proper site with it, hoping that this will give me more
insight. So I guess I am back to square one with a couple of things.
When generating a static site using 'forrest site' everything works as it
should,
and I will upgrade to Thorstens work ASAP, but in the meantime,
1. Whenever a change is made to an xml file, for instance index.xml, I again
do
a 'forrest site' and upload the updated files. Now, all I have done is
made
minor changes to index.xml and not added/subtracted any links at all,
but
because of timestamping of files etc I find that my editor wants me to
upload all files, inlcuding images, because they have changed. If, in
the
future I make only minor changes to an .xml file, is there a better way
to
update this to produce the static .html equivelant ?
2. This is a minor point but I mention it in case it needs addressing or
ignored
due to upcoming updates. The produced 'tabs.xml' from a 'forrest seed'
contains the following amongst others :-
<tab label="Apache XML Projects" href="http://xml.apache.org";>
<tab label="Forrest" href="http://forrest.apache.org"/>
<tab label="Xerces" href="http://xml.apache.org/xerces"/>
</tab>
The two 'second level' tabs pointing to 'Forrest' and 'Xerces' are useless
as far
as I can see as they will never get shown because the main tab they belong
to
takes you to an external site., or have I misunderstood ?
