I noticed that File paths work differently between ssi
and yssi.
i.e.:
out(Arg)->{ssi,"testdir/ssi_inc.yaws","%",[]}.
will find the file relative to the yaws docroot.
But,
out(Arg)->{yssi,"testdir/ssi_inc.yaws"}.
will find it relative to the calling yaws file.
Is there a reason that the file lookups work
differently?

sloppyness ... would be the reason. This cannot be changed though
since a change would break code. Should be documented though.

I'd like to suggest that this is the wrong approach. Now is the time
to fix this problem. Erlang is getting a lot of press right now, and
this should be fixed before it's too late. Too late because there will
hopefully be a lot more users of Erlang and Yaws, and too late because
an inconsistency like this looks bad.

I'd have to agree here. It makes little sense to have a relative path ssi
call use the docroot rather than the path to the current file that is
evaluating the ssi call. Better to fix this now before yaws gets more
adoption as the current user base is well equiped to fix any incompatibilies
during an ugprade with a simple grep and replacement.

While I believe there are some serious shortcomings yet to be fixed with
regards to yaws includes and recursion - the absolute/relative issue
described below has already been fixed in the source a few months ago.
I'm testing using the version from CVS just before conversion to SVN - but I
don't think much has changed in between.
Testing with the CVS version:
Both:
out(Arg)->{ssi,"testdir/ssi_inc.yaws","%",[]}.
out(Arg)->{yssi,"testdir/ssi_inc.yaws"}.
are 'relative' includes due to the lack of a leading slash.
Both:
out(Arg)->{ssi,"/testdir/ssi_inc.yaws","%",[]}.
out(Arg)->{yssi,"/testdir/ssi_inc.yaws"}.
Are 'absolute' includes with the path being from the docroot.
I've tested by placing an ssi_inc.yaws in /testdir and a different version
under /sub/testdir
Files in both locations can include the appropriate files relatively or
absolutely - no problems.
Even relative backtracking includes work; for example:
out(Arg)->{ssi,"../testdir/ssi_inc.yaws","%",[]}.
out(Arg)->{yssi,"../testdir/ssi_inc.yaws"}.
Speaking of sloppy.. I owe some documentation to the project regarding
virtual directories.. as well as these fixes to includes.
My apologies.. I haven't forgotten or disappeared entirely - but am under
serious time constraints for a while yet.
I'll still monitor for bugs related to code I've added, and will hopefully
get a chance to work with the other devs to drive things forward again soon.
Cheers,
Julian

Thanks.
Speaking of documentation, I've been submitting a
small handful of syntax and spelling patches for the
example yaws files. Can someone with commit rights
take a peek at them?
