Dear friends,
TT is not only good for commercial sites, but even for small humble
sites that are maintained by one volunteer with little time. I figured
that using TT is much more efficient than keeping a bunch of pages
consistent by tweaking them by hand. So far, I have produced three
different sites, two of which are still alive (you will notice
similarities in the structure):
http://www.averroes-foundation.org/
http://people.seas.harvard.edu/~oliver/
The menu is created from simple a XML sitemap database read through
XML-DOM. Each page template has an ID that is also contained in the
sitemap database.
Take care
Oliver
