Just to add to this. I do have access to update the e.org site. For various reasons I don't use XSM. Ok, I decided to try, just to put a bit of a 'what we're doing' up on e.org today. So, I log in, click the news page. Ok, hit edit. No, that's just editing old posts (of which I can't edit as I guess their owned by other people) Ok, that's cool. Click 'new' that makes sense, make a new post. But then I see, create a new: html book embed Embed a page or site inside an XSM page. This uses the IFRAME tag and is not fully supported by all browsers. events A simple event system that will grow with time faq files gallery glossary A glossary page for definitions of terms or abbreviations. links login A login page for your site, keeps a unified look and saves typing the site name news A blog-like news page with archives and syndication previewedfile sitemap At which point I say, what the hell? How do I add a new news item. I don't want to add a 'page' or is a news item a page? But that new page says it will appear on the side bar. Maybe I'm missing something. But at a minimum we'll need some documentation to tell us how to do the simple things (which currently seem a bit difficult). For now, back out of XSM and no posts to e.org for me. dan ------------------------------------------------------------------------- Using Tomcat but need to do more?
