It is a project starter template with some pretty nice stuff for separating out ant targets and the such. I like it. > If it's just for L&F, I'd much rather tweak the existing stylesheets. I'm not sure why you had so much trouble. I barely put any effort in it at all today and got a project with complex dependencies and some doco out in like 0 time flat. And I don't proclaim to be a Cocoon expert or even particularly intelligent. :-) -Andy > -- > dIon Gillard, Multitask Consulting > Work: http://www.multitask.com.au > Developers: http://www.multitask.com.au/developers -- http://www.superlinksoftware.com http://jakarta.apache.org/poi - port of Excel/Word/OLE 2 Compound Document format to java http://developer.java.sun.com/developer/bugParade/bugs/4487555.html - fix java generics!
