Yes and thank you. I've seen that page and it lays some groundwork, but doesn't give any concrete examples.

Has anybody implemented multi-page article functionality? Can anybody lend some working code/setup information?

Any help is greatly appreciated. We are trying to evaluate eZ Publish, and multi-page articles is one of the top feature we'd need to be able to implement.

Thanks again.

Here's quick and dirty example of a multipage article, consisting of two classes.

MultiPage Article (class id 6)
Attributes:
- Title (text field)
- Intro (xml field)
- Body (xml field)
MultiPage SubPage (class id 7)
Attributes:
- Title (text field)
- Body (xml field)

file: full_class_6.tpl
{* Full class template for Multipage Article *}

<h1>{$node.name}</h1>
<p>Last updated {$node.parent.object.published|l10n(datetime)}</p>

<div class="block">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.intro}
</div>

<div class="block">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.body}
</div>

{let children=fetch('content', 'list', hash(parent_node_id, $node.main_node_id, class_filter, include, class_filter_array(7)))
}

{* Subpages *}
<td width="140" valign="top" align="left">
 
<ul>
{section show=$children}
<h2>Sections</h2>
<li>{$node.name}</li>
{/section}
{section name=Child loop=$children}
<li><a href={$Child:item.url_alias|ezurl}>{$Child:item.name}</a></li>
{/section}
</ul>
</td>
{/let}

File: full_class_7.tpl
{* Full class template for Multipage SubPage*}

{let children=fetch('content', 'list', hash(parent_node_id, $node.parent_node_id, class_filter, include, class_filter_array(7)))
}

<div class="block">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.title}
</div>
<p>Last updated {$node.parent.object.published|l10n(datetime)}</p>

<div class="block">
{attribute_view_gui attribute=$node.object.data_map.body}
</div>

{* Subpages *}
<td width="140" valign="top">
 
<ul>
<h2>Sections</h2>
<li><a href={$node.parent.url_alias|ezurl}>{$node.parent.name}</a></li>
{section name=Child loop=$children}
{section show=eq($Child:item.node_id, $node.node_id)}
<li>{$Child:item.name}</li>
{section-else}
<li><a href={$Child:item.url_alias|ezurl}>{$Child:item.name}</a></li>
{/section}

{/section}
</ul>
</td>

First you create a Multipage Article and then create Multipage SubPages under the article. The subpages should then be listen when you view either the main article or one of the subpages. (note: you might want to change the html around the listing of subpages)
