New style is now live
The new style is now live on http://httpd.apache.org/docs-2.0/
Congrats to everyone who worked on it. I think it looks very nice.
Still lots of work to do, of course.

The proper way to fix this is to add a "Description" section to
directive-dict and module-dict, and then provide a link like all the
others. I've meant to do this since I first created the xml, but I've
never gotten around to it.

I tend to agree, although there is something to be said for the
consistency of it: if it is a link, it is underlined. I'm not going to
change this at the moment, but if someone feels they can improve things,
please feel free...

Yah, I can add a little margin-top to the <td> elements.

++1 ... this is terrific!

'Description' in the directive should be the same blue style as the other
field titles (e.g. 'Syntax', 'Default', 'Context' etc). Also, the underbar on
those field titles is overkill, a hover effect would be fine, I think.
Also, on the main index page, with a narrow window, the wrapped text
links get hard to follow (it's hard to distinguish one from the next due
to insufficient leading between items or lack of indentation clues.)

I suppose I should offer a URL:
http://apache.slashdot.org/article.pl?sid=02/09/06/1746244
since this may not show up for everyone on the front page if they have
different preference settings than I do.

Probably jumped the gun a little, but I posted something on /. as folks
have probably already noticed.

Great job guys! This deserves an announcement as well as a front-page

I agree. I just took a look at it, and the docs look fantastic.

Yes, a howto/index.xml should be added. I think it might also be a good
idea to add a new element to the DTD -- something like <parent-document
href="...">How-To</parent-document> -- that we can use both to provide
the URL for the "Back" link and another level for the breadcrumb links.
This would allow us to add a little more structure that is not
dependent on directory-structure.
I haven't done it yet because I'm not sure how general it should be.
For example, do we want to support "grandparents".
Joshua.

This looks really great, people.
Nit: On the files in howto/ the top left "Back" link takes one to a
directory listing. I suppose the right thing to do is make an index page
in that directory, and I always sort of assumed there was one, although
I don't know why I thought that.
