- <h1>Making Updates to the Boost Website Content</h1>
-
- <p>Any boost developer can update the Boost website content between
- releases.</p>
-
- <ul>
- <li>We <em>strongly</em> recommend the use of <a href=
- "http://tidy.sourceforge.net/">HTML Tidy</a> when editing HTML and XHTML
- files intented for the website. Using <code>tidy</code> helps in
- preventing errors in the HTML, in keeping a clear revision history, and
- in conforming to Web standards to help make the website readable by the
- majority of people. The Boost web pages currently have a variety of
- different types of HTML and XHTML content. Each needs to be dealt with
- differently by <code>tidy</code>. Most pages are regular HTML 3.x/4.x,
- for these use a <code>tidy</code> invocation of:
- <pre>
-tidy --tidy-mark no -i -wrap 78 -m <i>some_page.html</i>
-</pre>Other pages are using the more recent XHTML 1.0 and XHTML 1.0 Strict
-standards. Most notably this include the <a href="../index.htm">home
-page</a>. Some additional options are needed to make <code>tidy</code>
-enforce the XHTML standard:
- <pre>
-tidy --tidy-mark no -i -wrap 78 -m -asxhtml <i>some_page.html</i>
-</pre>That command is also useful if one is converting from HTML to XHTML. To
-have <code>tidy</code> check for the XHTML 1.0 Strict format use:
- <pre>
-tidy --tidy-mark no -i -wrap 78 -m -asxhtml --doctype strict <i>some_page.html</i>
-</pre>If you have a choice as to what format to use, prefer the XHTML 1.0
-Strict format as that opens the content to the widest audience.
- </li>
-
- <li>If the change you are making is intended to be part of a release, you
- should first make the change in our CVS repository, so it doesn't get
- lost or overwritten by the next person that updates the page between
- releases. Of course if you don't check in (say because the change is not
- supposed to be in the next release), and someone else changes the page
- after you, the change may be lost. This procedure does not account for
- that case; you'll have to use your head and figure out what to do.</li>
-
- <li>You will upload the file(s) by <code>scp</code>'ing to the
- appropriate subdirectory of
- <code>shell.sf.net:/home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/</code>. For example,
- to update the page you are reading, I would issue
- <pre>
-scp updating_the_website.html david_abrahams_at_[hidden]:/home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/more/
-</pre>
- </li>
-
- <li>It is <b>crucial</b> to ensure that you set group write permission on
- every file you upload. If you don't do that, nobody else will be able to
- change it, which is particularly deadly at release time. If you are on
- Unix or Cygwin, you may be able to do that with a <tt>chmod</tt> command
- before uploading the file. The absolutely failsafe thing to do is to <tt>
- ssh</tt> into <tt>shell.sf.net</tt> and do the <tt>chmod</tt> there.
- The files also need to have general read permission, and any
- directories should have general execute permission and the "set user or
- group ID on execution" (s) bit should also be set. If you're not
- touching any directories, you can do it all with one command, e.g.
- <pre>
-ssh david_abrahams_at_[hidden] "chmod a+r,g+rw /home/groups/b/bo/boost/htdocs/more/updating_the_website.html"
-</pre>
- </li>
- </ul>
