I have the basic use of catalogs and searching worked out... I can create indexes and metadata and make a form to search for and link to various things.

My problem now is that I find a lot of objects that are just "parts" of the real documents. So, my links end up being to the bare content, rather than to the content wrapped up in my website.

How do you dinsinguish between 'parts' and 'content wrapped up'?

I guess that is the basic question.... For instance, I might have a menu defined in a dtml-method, a navigation bar in a dtml-method and an article in a dtml-document. Those might all be in a folder, with an index_html to wrap them up in to a complete page. So, maybe my search should only return index_html page hits... except that (of course) I have some exceptions to that rule :o) Or maybe each article needs to have some metadata which tells how it should be accessed. Probably I need to rethink the whole structure of the site with cataloging in mind. Any pointers? _________________________________________________________________ MSN 8 helps eliminate e-mail viruses. Get 2 months FREE*. http://join.msn.com/?page=features/virus
