[daisy] BUG(s)? two different links to edit navigation document

[Karel Vervaeke]

That's not correct: the documentpage_pubreq.xml file is not a valid
publisher request file on the repository side:
  - It is merely a template for generating publisher requests to send to
the repository
  - The pageContext variable is only known on the wiki, and it is
resolved before the request is sent to the repository.


I just experimented a bit, it seems the whole publisher request set
approach does not seem to work (Sorry).  You could apply your changes
directly to this file
(daisy-2.1/daisywiki/webapp/daisy/resources/xml/documentpage_pubreq.xml),
but it might interfere the Site switching algorithm and other parts of
the Wiki.  Perhaps the introduced problems are greater than the amount
of problems solved.  

There is another thing you could evaluate/try: if there is a web server
in front of your Daisy installation, you could use rewrite rules (a la
mod_proxy) to make the urls prettier (again, may have some other
consequences)
(e.g. translate (extranal) /en/portugal to (internal) daisy/en_portugal)

HTH,
Karel
