There is another thread with similar info to which I have replied, see it in Announcements.

This quote (-->) from the Meaty page sizzles:
"This is great! But I don't think it's appropriate to consider me as a project leader.
I'll focus on the core puppy, that is, a BareBones, and the CE is putting the flesh on it." Barry Kauler

-->This brings us to another great reason for the new approach: it allows Barry Kauler, the creator of puppy, the time and freedom to focus on the area of greatest impact, the core operation system. By turning over the development, maintenance and support of the layers of window manager, look and feel, applications, etc. to the active community of developers he will have more time to continue turning out the elegant ideas and code that make puppy so fast and lean. The community has proven its commitment and ability to offer great solutions, and this will only increase the overall ability to move ahead. Please note: this is not a parting of ways but rather a deepening level of collaboration through efficient division of labor.

This is a reply to
http://forum.puppylinux.net/viewtopic.php?t=195
as I cannot post code there.
----------------------------------------------
Welcomepage to install Dotpups

http://dotpups.de/dotpups/Programming/w ... xample.pup

Edit the 2 .htm -files in
/root/ghttpd/htdocs/welcome01

Requires Puppy2, as that has already easycgi installed for the debian-installer.

Things important to know:
With CGI-pages, you do not link to a HTML-file directly.

Not <a href="welcome.htm">

But: <a href="http://localhost/cgi-bin/easycgi.cgi?pa ... print>date +%s</execprint>">

So what do the values mean?
easycgi is the script, that allows to use "active" content, like executing shell-commands.
welcome.htm is the page to be displayed.
&t= this is a parameter, that passes the unixtime in seconds. This forces dillo to reload the pages, and avoids cache-problems that are common in our dillo.

<execprint> This "new" HTML-tag is not understood by a webbrowser, but it is used by easycgi to run a shellcommand. The example runs date +%s to print the unixtime, so that it can be passed as parameter to refresh the cache.

Apart from that, installing a Dotpup is almost as easy as printing italic text, just watch the example.
