Hello stavros Thanks for the fast reply, just seen it.... I understand that not all is implemented, this is why I thought about adding this functionality - and came to the problem of Xpath and namespaces.
Also - I thought about the solution you offered in the Email first, but it have the problem that every content page should define <osm:title-copy/> tag. And I wanted to allow the default "home" tag to remain if there is no "<osm:title-copy/>" in the content page. This is why I chose the other solution - which deals with this scenario. (see below). But then I had some problems with the fact that the <head> tag had a default name space. Is there a way around it ? I couldn't find the Xpath expression to resolve the head tag.. What do you think ?
