[support] Content Structure

Thank you to those who replied. My response:

Now this looks interesting--I will check it out.

This I don't need, as the pages are already broken up--one page per HTML 
file. :)

I was thinking of the same thing. I had forgotten where this is as I 
have never used it, but in reality, this is precisely what I need as it 
allows me to create chapters and then pages within those chapters in a 
sequence:

http://drupal.org/handbook/modules/book

Hmm, this is interesting advice. The 'rollback' issue doesn't exist in 
actuality b/c anyway this is a fresh DB, but it might well be easier to 
run a script on the files than on the DB. I will consider this.

 > Maybe use CCK[2] and its image field[3]?

Good idea--I have used these before--I will see how this will work. I 
think in reality that I will just upload all the JPGs en masse and setup 
links right in the node HTML code to them--this should be easy.

Seems like using Book should handle this.

Thanks,
