I've been kinda thinking of doing the same thing.
I've (relatively) recently got my site online, but it's old and
written in FrontPage. I want to have it make the navbars
automatically, as well as header/footer/etc. I was thinking of using
just HTML fragments and PHP. Using the MediaWiki parser would be
awesome, too.
For me, it would be a lot easier to use MediaWiki than writting my own
stuff. Of course, If I use MediaWiki, I'll probably do that anyway.
Has anyone managed to 'lift' the parser so that it just takes in some
WikiTax and spits out an HTML fragment? w/ an interwiki table, of
course. (Now I know why the structure is so complex. The actual
querying code is buried so deep that the highlevel code won't care if
you redirect it to a directory setup.)

Hi Manny,

Basically I want to use MediaWiki as a Content Management System. I'm
aware it's not strictly built for that because there is no access
control management, but I'd be the sole user anyway. My only point in
using MediaWiki is to stop writing HTML by hand (too cumbersome) and
have the MediaWiki-markup and all its features I've grown to like at my
disposal.

Thanks and regards,
Jens Ropers
