Hi Ferdinand,
Will this work in 0.6 as well?

Check out this example from a recent thread
Q: Integrate multipage externally generated content
It shows how to use x-include to insert buildingblocks into an
existing site.xml.
What I don't know/ haven't asked if this works with tabs as well, but
you could always ask Sjur.

In site-frag.xml:
<?xml version="1.0" encoding="UTF-8"?>
<tech>
<techdoc href="doc/" label="Technical doc" tab="TechDoc">
<index href="intro.html" label="Introduction" />
</techdoc>
<!-- add entries ad lib just as in site.xml -->
</tech>
The same for tabs.xml and tabs-frag.xml.
The outer element in both fragment files are required to make the files
valid XML files. Hence the reference to the content of that element in
the XInclude.
It works like a charm, and having the full power of XInclude makes for
a very flexible solution.
