Site setup
The site is currently static HTML with SSI (which are fast and simple, but can be used for complex things), in a subversion repo, you can browse the source of the pages here:
You can also get an overview via the sitemap:
The layout uses the Yahoo PureCSS framework:
We have a development version of the site here for testing changes:
Using subversion
These instructions are based on the use of the subversion command line client, there are also graphical clients available for many platforms.
First check the pages out:
svn co https://svn.webarch.net/webarchcoop/webarch/
Then cd into the new webarch directory and open the .shtml files in a text editor to edit them.
Note that the title of the page is contained in a variable at the top of the page, for example:
value="Webarchitects Co-operative"
And the description / first sentence of the page is also in a variable (and therefore can't contain HTML), for example:
value="Webarchitects is a Sheffield based, small and friendly, multi-stakeholder co-operative which provides ethical and green, web hosting, virtual servers and GNU/Linux sysadmin support services."
The keywords variable is optional.
After the heading variables and an include, simple HTML can be used, for columns use the Pure grid system. Or just leave the layout to Chris to sort out.
When you have made some changes you can commit these this this:
svn ci file.shtml
The checked out development version of the site, https://dev.webarch.net/ won't automatically change when you do this -- email Chris to ask for it to be updated to the latest version for checking.
You can browse the raw HTML here to check your changes have been committed:
The page headers and footers are somewhat complicated SSI, and can be browsed here, see the top.shtml and bot.shtml files and view source, it is probably best to ask Chris if you need to edit these files:
Eg:

- view-source:https://svn.webarch.net/webarchcoop/wsh/bot.shtml
