About this site

This is a proof-of-concept site centered around the idea that most content management systems are entirely too complex. The goal is to build a set of easy-to-maintain scripts and files that will leverage the functionality present on most Apache webservers. That is, .htaccess rules, Indexes, and filesystem folders and files.

Clicking on a folder name simply brings you to the Apache Index for that folder. Any folder can display a welcome page by the inclusion of a .index.html file. This is enabled with the .default.php script.

Three content types are supported in this version: plain text, html, and images. Each are handled and displayed properly via client-side javascript. The behaviour.js script and script.aculo.us are instrumental in enabling this functionality.
