I have a patch from Matt Neuberg,  which was documented on the Dr 
Matt pages, that Userland used to display but have now pulled, which 
is needed for this. Take a look at http://www.tidbits.com/matt/ to 
see who Dr MAtt is,

Its a bug fix to html.ftpTable; change the single calls to 
html.callFileWriterStartup and  html.callFileWriterShutdown to

html.callFileWriterStartup (adrTable, adrPageTable, template);

html.callFileWriterShutdown (adrTable, adrPageTable, template)

You might also do a  ritual complaint that Userland won't fix a bug 
that was already old when I read the page and made this patch.


You'll find a lot of discussion on static rendering in Manila  on my 
pages at  <http://www.baylys.com:8080/patchesbygroup/>  see 
categories staticender and scalableContent
