Hi,

I've updated my local repo and checked that the 'starts-with' attribute stuff 
of motd is not available with dispatcher. I've customised the content-motd-
page.contract.xml that comes with dispatcher adding some 'starts-with' stuff. 
I've used $FORREST_HOME/main/webapp/skins/pelt/xslt/html/site-to-xhtml.xsl as 
a guide (not sure if it is the best choice but it has been good enough for 
me). Now the motd contract works as I want.

So again thanks for your help,

Vicent
