---------------------------------------

Wow I hate conversations in Jira... no threading, etc, etc... oh well off we 
go... It's a good conversation anyway.

For reference Bruno wrote:

"Regarding using a configuration parameter as prefix, this was my first idea. 
But then, when I exported a Confluence space and installed locally into 
hot-deploy I found that while locally I had to link the files with the .html 
extension, the url to have a page from a live Confluence are without .html and 
with a "+" instead of spaces. So it seems not to be possible with asimple 
prefix but we should have a completely different mapping file."

These sound like items to take care of on a check list more than issues....

The "+" instead of spaces is a common way of encoding URLs. You'll find with 
confluence that a plain space or a %20 works just as well. With the webapp name 
and view name combination that won't be an issue though.

For the ".html" we can easily have a configured suffix as well as a configured 
prefix.

> not committed but attached to the Confluence documentation main page.
> In this way who updates the documentation can update this "index" file also.
> Who is interested in using the onlline documentation will download this file 
> and install infor OFBiz.
> Who is interested to have a local copy of the help can consider using the 
> export space function present in Confluence.
> This creates a complete static HTML copy of the documentation. A specific

> What do you think?
