-          First, you need to activate the Site.xml view. This can be done by:
-          <code>
-            Window -> Show View -> Other... -> Forrest -> SiteXML -> OK
-          </code>
-          Now you will see the the view open up in Eclipse. To view a tree, click on the project you are working and you should see the structure of the site.xml as a tree in the view.

-          There are two ways to add the note to the site.xml file.
-        </p>
-          <ol>
-            <li>
-              Drag a document from the Package Explorer to the tree. This will create a new element called NewElement which will allow with references to that new object
-            </li>
-            <li>
-              Right click on an element in the site.xml tree and select "Add Element". A wizard will come up which will allow you to enter the HREF, Description, Label and Element name for the new element that is being added.
-            </li>
-          </ol>
-        <p>
-          To delete an element, right click on the element in the tree and click on "Delete Element".
-        </p>
-        <warning>
-          For the changes to show up when you run a test site for your project, you must save the changes. Right click on the tree and select
-		  "Save". In a later version of the plugin this step will not be necessary.
