My old website
www.akbkhome.com has been suffering from serious neglect. I scraped enough together time a few months ago to extract the old content out of midgard, into a subversion with a wiki like file structure, and overlay a simple rendering layer.
For some strange reason, even though I'm dieing to get on with pintcompiler and dbdo, the fact that most of the links on the old site where broken really annoyed me. So I spent a bit of time this week writing a editing interface for it.
These days I try and avoid any type of dynamic interface work in HTML - XUL is the only way to do forms, and user-interfaces. So I started with the
midas demo code and plugged it into a XUL interface.
Along with this I added a links editor [press on the view as links] (as that was the major thing to sort out on the site), a insert link from navigation bar (as my menu is a simple html list, parsed with XML_Tree). Added a few fun features like a image browser, tag viewer, webdav publishing (thanks to a link from chegru) and hey it's a pretty damn cool simple site manager.
Have fun playing with it.. (mozilla/firefox only)
