Smalltalkhub is now to able to distinguish between raw and not raw mcz listing
requests.
Ex:
http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Seaside/Seaside30LGPL/main?format=raw
http://smalltalkhub.com/mc/Seaside/Seaside30LGPL/main/
I already use the apache directory index for another page so I will not be able
to modify this one. I guess the current index will « not work » because glass
expect some HTML structure.
Could you confirm and tell me what is the expected structure?
Regards,
Christophe
