I want to write a script that will use Zooms zdat files to make a site map. Has anyone done this? I know it's possible, I just can't figure it out. Any suggestions?

In the medium term we are going to do a site map tool / function.

We don't know of any existing script.

You could create a simple list of pages by getting the list of URLs from the zoom_pages.zdat file.

You could then break up the page list into categories using the zoom_catpages.zdat and zoom_cats.zdat files (assuming you were using categories in Zoom).

This could be some with a fairly simple script in PHP or ASP.

But if you wanted to create something more advanced it would require a fairly complex script.
