Re: Publishing custom XML content

Hi Benno,

 > If that means to create your own Silva content type, you might be 
interested in the Extending Silva HowTo I updated to this year's 
EuroPython conference.
I downloaded, installed and studied it, but I haven't figured out if 
whether useful for our purposes or not.
For example, our XML-structure is never the same, while your XML always 
uses the same elements at the same place.

Your XML:

    <eptalk>
      <eptspeaker>Benno Luthiger</eptspeaker>
      <epttitle>Extending Silva</epttitle>
      <eptabstract>Silva has plugin capability built in. This feature ...</eptabstract>
      <eptaudience>technical, advanced</eptaudience>
      <epttype>normal talk</epttype>
      <eptduration>60 Minutes</eptduration>
      <eptbio>The speaker has been ...</eptbio>
    </eptalk>

Our XML:

<BOEK>
<METAINFO/>
<ONDERDEEL>
<TITEL>Werken in het primair onderwijs</TITEL>
<OPENINGSFIGUUR><AFBEELDING BRON="Basisonderwijs316.tif"/></OPENINGSFIGUUR>
<INLEIDING>
<KOP NUMMER="1">Inleiding en verantwoording</KOP>
<INTRO>
<ALINEA>
<SUBALINEA>[some text]</SUBALINEA>
<SUBALINEA>[some text]</SUBALINEA>
</ALINEA>
</INTRO>
<ALINEA>
<SUBALINEA>[even more text]</SUBALINEA>
</ALINEA>
<ALINEA>
<SUBALINEA>
<OPSOMMING TYPE="NUMMER">
<ITEM>
<OPSOMALINEA>
<OPSOMSUBALINEA>
<VET>Onderwijsassistent in het primair onderwijs</VET>
</OPSOMSUBALINEA>
<OPSOMSUBALINEA>[text]</OPSOMSUBALINEA>
</OPSOMALINEA>
</ITEM>

... and so on ... quite a disaster. ;)

</BOEK>

Also, our documents will have to be imported into Silva, instead of 
being created (and/or edited).

Do you think this is still possible using your content type, or will 
things get too complicated?

Regards,
Yuri Smetsers

PS: I included the DTD we're using, in case you're interested. :)
