Setting up éKoru

éKoru generates two types of pages:

Directory Listings: generated automatically in response to a request for a folder. If there is an index.htm in the folder, it will be appended to the directory listing.

Directory Listings will have /_ekoru/header.htm prepended to them.

HTML Files: are generated normally, but will automatically have:

	/_ekoru/header.htm prepended to them, and
	/_ekoru/footer.htm appended to them

Step 1: upload all the files onto your server

Pretty straightforward.

Step 2: get path from htaccess.php

Go to yourdomain.com/htaccess.php and copy the path that you see.
Open htaccess.php and put a "#" at the beginning of the first line.
In Section 1, change the paths to header.htm and footer.htm to the path you just copied from the page.
Upload the changed file, then change its name on the server to ".htaccess" instead of "htaccess.php".

That's all that is necessary for your site to work. The rest is cosmetic -- do as much or as little as you like

Step 3: Titles in /_ekoru/header.htm

Section 2:  modify the title. This title will follow the page name on all pages with an .html extension.

Section 4: modify the title. This title will appear on all directory-listing pages
 
Step 4: Logo & Background
# 
Replace logo: replace /_ekoru/css/logo.png with the 
transparent png image of your choice. You will need to
specify its dimensions in /_ekoru/stylesheet.css
# 
Replace background: replace /_ekoru/css/background.jpg
with the jpg image of your choice. The background defaults to
being stretched to fill the screen.
# 
#####4. CSS
# 
Modify /_ekoru/stylesheet.css as much as you like.
# 
Do not modify essential.css -- it's necessary in order
for the pages to display correctly.
