Guy There are a number of "introductory" tutorials out there... herewith a dump of a few: http://webreference.com/xml/column52/ http://www.developer.com/java/ent/article.php/3098661 http://www.idealliance.org/europe/03/call/xmlpapers/02-01-05.14/.02-01-05.html

Sort of. At present I'm running with the default settings. For instance below is my pipeline element (which I tacked onto the end of the other pipeline elements in the main sitemap). <!-- added by guyw first try at publishing using Cocoon --> <map:pipeline> <map:match pattern="firsttry"> <map:generate src="firsttry.xml"/> <map:transform src="firsttry.xsl"/> <map:serialize/> </map:match> </map:pipeline> As you can see I'm at a lower level than even the first tutorial. Don't get me wrong, I think the tutorial "How to develop Web Applications" is well crafted, and if I let my eyes go out of focus so I'm not reading the detail I can follow its logic. It's just too advanced at present. What I'd really like is to start at the start with the big picture (and maybe even a big picture) with some theory covering from the time the client sends its request to the time it receives the final published document from Cocoon. And was hoping that such a beginner's resource existed either in the documentation or in the Wiki. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- This message has been scanned for viruses and dangerous content by MailScanner, and is believed to be clean.
