This allows developers to use good old HTML (and some WYSIWYG tool) to edit & maintain documentation and get it included in the same site documentation as all the xdoc stuff git-svn-id: https://svn.apache.org/repos/asf/maven/maven-1/plugins/trunk@113056 13f79535-47bb-0310-9956-ffa450edef68

<p>
|
|
This plugin generates xdoc documents from some basic
|
|
HTML documentation which can then be styled by the xdoc goal to use
|
|
a uniform CSS style and add the common navigation links etc.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
This goal means that normal vanilla HTML can be used to create documentation
|
|
using a WYSIWYG editing tool like Mozilla or MS FrontPage.
|
|
</p>
|
|
<p>
|
|
Most end user documentation
|
|
only requires basic formatting (bold, italic, bullets) along with headings and images and
|
|
links so using normal HTML for documentation with a WYSIWYG tool is a good idea.
|
|

|
|
The properties that allow you to customize the execution
|
|
are documented <a href="properties.html">here</a>.

To enable HTML to xdoc conversion add the following to your maven.xml
