Hi all!
I'm trying to customize the xthml Sample Page for my publication.
In 1.4 the sample page is nicely packaged within the xthml module.
Is there an overwrite/fallback way to have a publication specific
xthml sample?
[stage lights, curtain.]
[enter fallback, to pompous music.]
in your publication's root directory, create a directory tree
"lenya/modules/xhtml/samples/"
in there, place a file xhtml.xml with your desired sample content.
you should probably base it on the one in the core.
in all sitemaps that come with lenya, most resources should be
addressed with the fallback:// uri, i.e. the xhtml module sitemap
will access the sample as fallback://lenya/modules/xhtml/samples/
xhtml.xml instead of "context://lenya/modules/xhtml/...". the
fallback source resolver will now first look in your publication
for this path and file, then in the template, the template's
template, ..., and finally in the core.
using this mechanism, you can selectively customize stuff without
having to rewrite entire modules. neato :)
the general technique is to mimic the part of the directory tree
from build/lenya/webapp you want to override. (again, this depends
on the core sitemaps using fallback:// for the particular
resource). so if it does not work, check the sitemaps and possibly
file a bug.
