not quite related to this thread, but... please don't move parameters or usecase identifiers into the uri. most search engines and robots handle uris and get params differently, and they know why. controls that define the looks of a page (as opposed to the content) should be in a GET parameter. a uri is a resource identifier, note the "uniform" part. :-D sticking presentation or session-related information into the uri is just abysmally wrong. imho, even the area part itself is wrong, but since the users won't ever see the "authoring" part, i just shrug and live with it. but the url kludge is definitely the least sexy part of lenya. from solprovider's suggestion it's a small step to including session cookies in the uri. don't laugh, there are a couple hare-brained cm systems out there that do exactly that. how do i know? well, i tried to mirror some sites of german electoral candidates for an empirical study. i tried to do incremental dumps over a couple of weeks, but ended up dumping the whole tree each time without ever realizing, and all the automated analysis stuff i hacked up just fell to pieces. don't go down that path, please, or i'll switch to frontpage. (does that make clear how serious i am?) regards, jörn --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
