Hi,
very carefully I am trying to make first steps towards XML and ConTeXt (with
MkIV).
Thus, I have enjoyed reading Thomas' MyWay "Getting Web Content and pdf-Output
from One Source":
I only kept wondering, how to keep control over the pdf-Output in terms of
fine-tuning the actual typesetting?
A quick search in the archive gave me the answer that is attached below: by
using XMLentities.
But coming back to Thomas' issue "Getting Web Content and pdf-Output from One
Source":
What about the other branch, getting web content?
Doesn't the XML source gets "spoiled" by these inserted XMLentities that only
make sense when following the pdf-Output branch?
Or will these XMLentities be silently ignored when feeding the XML source in a
CMS system or processing further to web content?
Apologies for asking such basic questions...
Any help or tips to deal with this hybrid will be greatly appreciated
Steffen
