xmlWiki is a hack not done the proper way: it is a modification of the index.php page offering new features which are all maintained from editing normal wiki articles.
- All articles are XML
- An additional xml page allows editing the data aspect of an article as a tree.
- A permissions structure offering basic read/write control over articles with users and groups.
- PHP Functions can be created and maintained by developers and can be dynamically applied to articles before rendering.
- Articles can made to automatically publish remotely over HTTP or FTP when edits are saved.
