Hi Ludovic,
thanks for the answers ... (for my comments, see below)

1) How can I
_directly_ jump to a page which name I know? If I enter a
pagename into the search field, a full text search is done and I get a
lot of hits.
The form field which builds the correct URL is a solution. You can also build a
target page with velocity which will search for existing pages matching the page name.
Please, can you give me a link for further reading about "building a target page with
velocity"? (BTW, the documentation
seems a bit poor ... or maybe I did not find the correct starting point yet)
2) Are umlauts (e. g. "ä", which is
ä) in pagenames possible?
Yes. They will be converted when you look at the URL
This does not seem to work:
a) I create a link [Kübel] (which is [Kuebel], ue = ü) on page A
b) when I save page A, the link [Kübel] has a question mark to indicate, that the page
does not exist
c) I click on that (non existing) link, and a page "K?" opens, that means: the
page name is truncated after the umlaut (which becomes a question mark)
I am using xwiki version 0.9.840 ... could this be the reason?
3) Can I have
redirects to another page (not URLs)? Like #REDIRECT [[pagename]]
in MediaWiki.
$response.sendRedirect("PageName") if it is in the same space.
It is better to use
$response.sendRedirect($xwiki.getURL("SpaceName.PageName"))
That works fine ... but: How can I edit the redirect later? In MediaWiki
there is displayed an information: "(Redirected from Usa)" ... and you can
click
on "Usa" and edit the page (i. e. the redirect)
4) How do
categories work? Like [[Category:catname]] in MediaWiki.
We don't have categories yet. We are adding tags right now.
Where can I read about this?
5) Can I edit just paragraphs/chapters of a page,
instead of the whole page?
You need the latest SVN version. You add xwiki.edit.section=1 in xwiki.cfg and you will
have section editing.
ok
6) Is there a
preview function to check the layout of a page before saving it?
There is the preview button when you are on the Edit page
ok
Thanks,
Roland
