Then I reply your report.
1. I'll check later deeply. Do you know the public confluence site which has this bug?
2. Pagetree refreshing is not supported yet. But, when new page created, it will be shown in page tree.
3. I have never met this bug. Let me the site.
I appreciate your help message.
Soon I will upload this application source to sf.net subversion server.

Doesn't "open source" mean that the source code is made available? I could only find a download of the .EXE version of your program, but the CVS didn't appear to have any source code available.

Now you can download 0.4 b1 sources from SF.net.
I'll release 0.4 b3 or later.

One small bug I've found is that dragging and dropping pages only seems to work at the same level as the page you're dragging, or lower. You can't drag a page up to a higher level in the tree. Example (below) I can't drag node D up to the same level as C, E and F by dropping it on to B. I can only seem to move node D to be a child of E, or F.
I'm not sure if this is standard behaviour. Example
+ |---A +---B +---C | + ---D +---E +---FNov 03, 2006

The first situation that you maybe have met: Before you drag D up to the same level as C, TreeView's selected node is A.
Then you will be meet "java.lang.IllegalArgumentException: Can not set page as its own parent.". Right?
The second situation that I think it will be right: Before you drag D up to the same level as C, TreeView's selected node is D.
Then it will do right.
In conclusion, 1st situation is a BUG.
Hmm. For now to avoid this bug, select D before drag it.
Thanks for a kind bug report.

I am managing a confluence installation with no dns name, just the IP address. in the settings i configured the url as following HTTP://10.0.0.150:8080/ Now i can browse the confluence structure but the moment i try to view/edit/etc a page it gives me a 404 page not found. The url in the window displays an url which points to http://localhost:8080/display/ds/Index instead of http://10.0.0.150:8080/display/ds/Index (which works after manually editing the url).
I have tried to reproduce the same situation with a confluence install on a server with dns entry - no problem
I have tried editing my hosts file to link a local dns name to the ip address - (i am behind a proxy) - edited the IE exclude from proxy field - no result.

I think it's a your confluence setting problem.
Please, go Administration page (General settings) and check your "Server Base URL".
Maybe your setting will be "http://localhost:8080/".
I think it should be "http://10.0.0.150:8080/".
I hope it help you.

When not inserting a password in the configuration i would like to see a dialog to insert my password for this session (I don't want it saved in the config.xml because it is saved plain text) but instead of giving me a dialog of some kind (or a nice formatted error) it gives me a java.lang.NullPointerException when i try to unfold the spaces node.

1. List all the available Spaces uder the root treeview node (ie the node with the Atlassian icon) not under a separate node called "Spaces". It seems to be an extra level in the tree that does nothing!
2. It would be nice to have a bookmark facility to store favourite pages on.
3. It would be nice to have multiple pages open at once, either in different tabs, or in a "split" window: top/bottom or left/right (or both
)
4. If you click on a profile, all the top-level spaces should be loaded automatically. This would save some time.
5. The news pages could be combined with the name of the space.
6. Replace the "Pages" node with the "Home" node (again, it seems to be one extra level in the tree for nothing)
The following image shows my ideas about the tree:Unable to render embedded object: File (Tree ideas) not found.

1. It is for very future version. ex. Server Info node etc.
2,3. Good idea.
4. It will be the option item.
5. Many news items can be listed. hm...
6. Any pages can be the same level with "Home" node if without parent page. so I can't.

Would be nice to be able to multiple select pages in order to do some operations like delete, but still much easier than removing a bunch of pages IN Confluence.
Great job and thanks!

Now I have only one feature request which would make this my favorite confluence plugin. If you can add a way to drag and drop attachments onto a page in the tree which would upload those attachments to that page. It would make life so easy when trying to add attachments to a page
Right now I use the Webdav plugin for this - but it is just too slow - way slower than confluencer

Beware: it will be stored in 'config.xml'!
The reason you browse the site is probably because confluencer.NET uses internet explorer and it has a valid cookie.
