Excuse the ignorance but was is: xml coding of a website mean?

Wed, 09 Sep 2009 10:12:10 -0700

Hi
A content provider delivers editorial content via xml. he has this to say:

The better your website is coded, the quicker we can add the content.
All content is provided as a XML stream pushed via FTP directly on your server. With a XML reader you simply read the XML files und publish them just in time on your website. So you don't have any progessing coding or content management to do.

What does he mean by this?
Is this do-able with CMSB?
Does Interactive do this kind of work or can you reccomend someone please?

Thanx in advance

Table Problems

Mon, 07 Sep 2009 01:26:15 -0700

Hi
Having some troubles with getting tables to look as they are in wysiwyg when they are published.
Attached image below (TABLES PROBLEM.jpg) explains the situation.
I create a table (imported from Word) which looks good in the Admin wysiwyg however when publishing - the width which I set at 500px is correct but no matter what I do (including setting the height of the table - see attached jpeg - the spacing between rows "stretches" to double spacing and thus I would like to know :
1. How to control the row spacing so that the spacing is how it looks in wysiwyg?
2. Most effective way to control the height of a table?
3. Best practice for using tables in CMSB?

An example with the table in question can be seen here:

Thanx in advance for any input.

Image upload quality problem

Thu, 25 Jun 2009 06:04:03 -0700

Hi
I am uploading gif banners onto my site. The size defined is 468x60.
The problem is that the image published is blown up (see attachment PICTUREPROBS.jpg) and instead of the crisp original we are left with a fuzzy image which is published size 521x68 - which looks terrible and seeing this is for advertising it should look crisp and clean...
Attached is also screen grab of the Admin Settings for my Ad area.
Need to know:
1. why the image is "growing" on the page.
2. fix for this so the image we upload is the image we see.
Thanx

Re: [ross] Image Upload

Mon, 15 Jun 2009 12:27:05 -0700

Hi Ross
Have been doing as you said and it works fine. I also discovered you can upload more than one image - but alas only one at a time - and then place them in the content area where I want them.
1. Is there a way to upload several images at a time through Add or Upload Files which gives a drop down box for several images to be uploaded at a time. This would be useful because my articles often take more than one image and as many as ten at a time.
2. Also if you could advise on how to link these thumbnails to the bigger image via (first prize) a pop-up window or simply a new browser window.
Cheers

Image Upload

Sat, 30 May 2009 02:11:16 -0700

Hi
I am new to CMS having worked with Article Manager until now. One thing article manager has is a very neat image uploading method whereby you upload a batch of images which each generate a ***image#*** tag. You can then caption, align, thumbnail it etc. Then you simply cut and paste this in the text area (***image#***) and this puts the image or thumbnail in the designated area.
Is this method available in CMS?
Please advise
Thanx

Re: [Donna] Content Area Question

Tue, 07 Apr 2009 22:32:03 -0700

Hi Donna
Thanx for your input regarding my request for www.yallaf1.com. I must be honest as a total noob when it comes to code editing and code stuff - not my area of expertise - and the placeholder thing sounds very cool but I simply have no clue how to implement it. So I went to the template and added content in a table which now appears where I want it on the right side panel
