Re: [O] Drupal syntax on html-export for image links
The exporter is new. Needless to say there are bugs, known and unknown. (Think, Rome wasn't built in a day) I have fixed few things. I will respond later for unresolved other things in your list. 7. No end-user documentation for the org-export package has been created, describing for example, how to link to an external CSS file (as #+STYLE used to work). This is fixed now. 8. The Manual does not (yet) document the org-export package: http://orgmode.org/manual/index.html The new exporter should behave exactly the same way as the old one. Otherwise, it is a bug. For all practical purposes, M-x customize-group RET org-export-e-html RET should suffice. Note that the defcustoms have `org-e-html-' as prefix. (Note the e in e-html) 1.

Re: [O] Drupal syntax on html-export for image links
Since I don't maintain `e-html' back-end, I'll only answer partially. I don't want to take over the maintainership of org-e-html. What I am saying is that, anyone with commit access to Orgmode - this includes me - can fix or patch up org-e-html without it being routed via me. +1 to Bastien for recommending the use of org-e-html. --
Re: [O] Drupal syntax on html-export for image links
Hello Nicolas and Jambunathan, Many thanks, to you both, for such quick and detailed responses! I look forward to checking things out later today. And yes, +1 to Bastien for recommending! Regarding your notes on image and file paths: JK I will respond to 3 and 4 separately. I need to look at JK this area closely. (I know nothing about HTML or HTML exporter.) JK What is g:/ here. Is it the publishing directory or JK the current directory. Given that, does removing the leading JK g:/ a specific requirement of yours or is it generally useful JK to anyone. The g:/ is a Windows artifact, indicating the drive. On Unix systems, root / is unique; on Windows there can be many drives indicated by letters at the root (c:/, d:/, .. z:/). The most common default for first hard disk is c:/, but other letters are often used. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Drive_letter_assignment I think that it would be generally useful to be able to remove the drive letter, so that c:/ or g:/ is transposed into just / so that when the link-string is passed to a publishing system, such as Drupal, it can easily digest it for further processing. Thanks again for all your work on this! -BC On Sun, May 27, 2012 at 5:37 AM, Jambunathan K kjambunat...@gmail.comwrote: The exporter is new. Needless to say there are bugs, known and unknown.

Re: [O] Drupal syntax on html-export for image links
Hello Bastien, Thanks for your pointer to org-export! I got it running and see it is an improvement. Reading the archives, I've gathered some notions. (Please correct me if I'm wrong!) Is it true that: 1. The org-export Package is a Generic Export Engine and is intended to support a new generation of org export tools (to HTML, LaTeX, ODT, etc). 2. It is now an experimental Contributed Package: http://orgmode.org/worg/org-contrib 3.

The Manual does not (yet) document the org-export package: http://orgmode.org/manual/index.html 9. This mailing list is the best place to ask questions. Even if it's not a full BNF, and only 98% as Nicolas says, a quasi-complete grammar is a really good place to start, or re-start, building a spaghetti-free export system, IMO. Turning to my immediate challenge, exporting to html, I have some questions ( M-x org-export-dispatch h ): 1. UTF-8 How can I change the encoding, which defaults to: ?xml version=1.0 encoding=iso-8859-1? I set org-export-coding-system: (setq org-export-coding-system 'utf-8) And now: org-export-coding-system is a variable defined in `org-export.el'.

[O] Drupal syntax on html-export for image links
Hello, I'm drafting pages for publication on a Drupal website. I've set up a draft-review cycle using Org-mode and some simplified CSS, for a light-weight type-and-read process. When I'm happy with the text, I'd like to cut-and-paste from the generated html output directly into Drupal. Links to external http files work fine, but image links (and internal links) are confounding me. -- Drupal inline image syntax is: img src=/sites/default/files/images/BC.png alt=BC Default Org-mode html-export, for [[/sites/a.png]] seems to be: img src=file://g:/sites/a.png alt=file://g:/sites/a.png / Which really won't do. Before hauling out my wheel-creation tools, has anyone created a Drupal-link type for Org-mode? Or some other solution? -- I found one Drupal thread in the archives: http://lists.gnu.org/archive/html/emacs-orgmode/2009-11/msg00473.html But I don't need or want to push the button and publish. I'd just like to modify the html-export output for images. (And then adapt that to internal links.) -- Thanks for any suggestions or references. And for Org-mode, which is great! -BC Org-mode: 7.8.09 Emacs: 24.1.50.1 Windows 7
