"Phil Harris" wrote Versions, wass all dat about den? How the hell, once you start working in a version, do you see the contents of that version without saving the work done in that version.
Tell someone to go to the url .../versionobj/enter
This will set a cookie. Then when they view the website, they will see the website that's in the version.
they should go to .../versionobj/leave
Some other miscellaneous notes on Versions...
The behaviour of Versions is something like using RCS with everyone checking out the code into a different workspace. That is, only one person can be modifying any particular object at a time. You can also only be looking at, or working in, one Version at a time.
A couple of questions I have:
Is it possible to get a list of all objects modified in a Version? Is it possible to revert changes for a particular object only, rather than save/discard all changes for a Version?
On a vaguely related note, has anyone thought about doing something with XML Export files and diff? It would be kinda cool to be able to take 2 daily XML export files, and produce a tree structure listing changed objects...
