Questions and Answers:
Can I use MultiLeaf with my existing web authoring tool (Dreamweaver, etc.)?
Yes you can. MutliLeaf allows you to edit and create an entire website in the authoring environment however, you can continue to use your favorite tools like Dreamweaver instead. Once the site is ready in Dreamweaver add a few simple PHP commands to your HTML files and you are ready to go.
What are the requirements to run MultiLeaf?
MultiLeaf requires PHP and the MySQL database which are both freely available and provided on almost all hosting plans.
What changes do I have to make to my HTML files to use MultiLeaf?
Changing an existing HTML file to a MultiLeaf template is very easy. Simply rename the .html file to .php and insert a few lines of code (between one and three) to view the content from MultiLeaf. The entire setup and modifications can be done in a matter of minutes.
I am a web designer and would like to restrict my clients to editing only the content and not the look and feel of the site, can I do that?
Absolutely, you can design your HTML template and insert the MultiLeaf content in a specific area only, say a table cell. This allows you, as the designer, the ability to maintain the style of the site while your clients can quickly make changes to the content.
Can I create "breadcrumbs" to show visitors which page they are on in the site heirarchy?
Yes, with one simple statement, MultiLeaf will automatically create the breadcrumb for you. This site's breadcrumb (just above the title) is generated this way. You can quickly navigate back and forth between pages.
MultiLeaf works best with Windows version of IE5.5 and above. Currently it does not support MacOS-based browsers.
What rendering engine does MultiLeaf use?
MultiLeaf uses the same rendering engine, as your web browser. So what you see is what you get. MultiLeaf uses the style sheet to display the content on the webpage.
Is this website built using MultiLeaf?
Of course!
