WebDAV

Silva can  be accessed by a WebDAV Client.  An author can use their WebDAV connection to:

• browse the contents of the server
  
• retrieve contents
  
• creating new folders (MKDIR will create a Silva Folder, not a  publication, currently)
• move existing Silva objects
• copy existing Silva objects
• upload content of an unknown file type, the result will be a  Silva File object
• upload images, resulting in Silva Image types being added
• upload HTML, which should result in creation of a Silva Document
• uploading XML with a .slv extension, this should result in creation  of a Silva Document
• uploading HTML or Silva XML (.slv) to an existing Silva Document

However use the Silva interface directly to:

• lock content
• control versioning of content
• to set and retrieve metadata
