How does mapix works ?

It consists in one main PHP class that parses a map file (usually /content/mapix.xml).
This XML document is an instance of the Mapix XML Schema and contains "special" tags that define the structure of the website.
This structure contains two encapsed trees : the sitemap tree and the transform tree.
When a URL is called on your website, Mapix first focus on the sitemap tree and finds the page node that matches the URL.
Then, Mapix parses and process the transform tree found in the page node.
The result of this transform is a XML document that can be static (a XML file),
or generated after one or many XSL transformations, or dynamically generated by a server script (such as PHP).
