The HTML content of the site is managed as a single HTML file and the content modified using an on-line HTML editor, as described in TinyMCE and FCKeditor.

The site is divided into sections according to HTML headings.  An <h1> is a top-level section, <h2> second-level, <h3> third level.  Each of these can be part of a displayed table-of-content (the navigation menu to the left of this page, or TOC).  <h4> generates an in-line heading separating parts of a single section. The heading numbers used as TOC can be changed from the default described above using the [site-depth] configuration directive.  Values of 2 to 5 are allowed.  If set to 4 then <h1>..<h4> are in the TOC and <h5>, <h6> are in-line headings, etc.  Unexpected document structure may be expected when changing this value after site design and composition!

These are substantially managed using VWcms Edit but can be manually added, removed or otherwise manipulated using the HTML or plain text editors (Plain Edit), or even at the command-line.

In fact a suitably organised HTML file could be uploaded from the  interface and serve as the basis of the site content.

The HTML is output directly and is used to format the composition of each page.

The substitution directives (e.g. $$CONTENT$$) insert other HTML (etc.) at that point in the output.

Look and Feel

The look and feel of the content of the site is largely controlled by the associated stylesheet and the consistent structure imposed by the site template(s) on displayed and printed pages.  Under this paradigm the content manager should be more concerned with the content and integrity of the site than with the presentation.
