 in sitemap?
The short path:

map:match pattern=static/*.html
map:read src=mystatichtmlpath/{1}.html type=text/html/
/map:match

 
 2. What reason is there not to abandon Apache httpd altogether
 and simply assign Cocoon to port 80 and serve everything from
 there. (Suspect 1 and 2 may be connected ).

  The reason is simple, performance.
It takes many more steps to cocoon to serv a static resource than
apache. So i think the best is the combo of apache and cocoon behind it.
Try to put all the static resources in apache like the images. Just
putting images on apache will boost the speed of your site because that
is the major load of most sites.
  You can do that with the Rewrite Module.

 
 3. How do I serve my PHP files through Cocoon? I notice there is
 a PHPGenerator in the libraries. But what do I put in the
 sitemap. What about CGI / Perl ? Any chance of that?
 
 4. Upon whom do I pour my plaudits for this wonderful
 institution, cocoon.

Use a Reader (see sample sitemap).

Running Tomcat on port 80 requires root privileges (at least on unix and
alike OS). This is essential on production system. Apache httpd has been
developed to run on port 80 and to take care of security issues.

 3. How do I serve my PHP files through Cocoon? I notice there is

I've never used that one. Sorry, can't help you out.

To all who have helped making it :)

 Hi,

 I've just discovered the joys of Cocoon. Installation of both
 Cocoon 2 and Tomcat 4 on Win95 went remarkably smoothly despite
 my trepidation. The only problem I recall is running out of
 environment space when running the batches. I had to make a
 shortcut to the batches and control the environment space through
 the shortcut properties.

 Now I've got some really dumb questions which you are free to
 ignore. I won't be this stupid for long. I've got as far as
 serving up my own XML/XSLT combo. Fantastic. Now,

 1. How do I serve a static HTML file, ie. what do I have to put
 in sitemap?

See the examples first, it's too long to explain everything here ;-)

 2. What reason is there not to abandon Apache httpd altogether
 and simply assign Cocoon to port 80 and serve everything from
 there. (Suspect 1 and 2 may be connected ).

Tomcat 4.0 developers say that it's better to use it directly on port 80 if
your app is dynamic, with apache also if there are many static resources.
For Cocoon it's basically the same.
Try the two and keep the fastest. Period.

 3. How do I serve my PHP files through Cocoon? I notice there is
 a PHPGenerator in the libraries. But what do I put in the
 sitemap. What about CGI / Perl ? Any chance of that?

 4. Upon whom do I pour my plaudits for this wonderful
 institution, cocoon.

To everyone, the creator, the developers, the testers, the users
the community.
