You do not have to use XML, DTDs and XSL if all  you want is plain WYSIWYG HTML.

For more info on configuring permissions, see
http://hypercontent.sourceforge.net/help/project/permissions.html

There are some other good documents in that section to help you get started, but some pages are 
unfortunately still blank.

There is not currently a JSP renderer in HyperContent.

You're very close!  The missing key here is a wildcard in the pattern.

<resource-directory path="/html/*.html" label="Html File" publish="true">
 		<content type="text/html"/>
</resource-directory>

Note that with publish="true", you do not have to specify an output if you just want the raw file 
output.  You would need an output if you wanted to perform any processing, or change the content 
type retured from the server.  This is handy for DTDs, for example, since browser don't recognize 
their content type.

<resource-directory label="DTD" path="/config/dtd/*" publish="false">
		<content type="application/xml-dtd" />
		<output basedir="/" content-type="text/plain" />
</resource-directory>

File patterns are similar to ant patterns; you could also specify your path as "/**/*.html", and this 
would allow users to put HTML files in any directory at any level.
