Installation/Requirements
-------------------------

To install this module into you Moodle server just place the autoview directory created by
unzipping this download into your moodle/mod directory and then point your browser at /admin
on your Moodle server, or click the notifications link in the 'Site Admin' menu.

This module also requires the following extras which may not be part of the default PHP
installation on your system :

1) XSL support. The default source downloads for PHP 5 and better has XSLT support bundled, but the
libraries may not be enabled by default. The module will NOT work without the XSLT functions.

Look for the following option on the PHP info page :

--with-xsl=

Windows users should look at http://uk.php.net/manual/en/ref.xsl.php#65277 for a note on
enabling XSL in PHP.

Note : You should also find a section further down the the phpinfo() page which
mentions xslt. It is not uncommon for binary distributions of PHP (particularly
RPM's and DEB's for linux) to compile PHP with the full set of options and then spilt up the binary
into several separate packages. In these cases the compile options may still show on the phpinfo()
page, but the later xsl/sablotron section will be missing. You need to look for the xml/xslt support
packages, eg on CentOS make sure the php-xml rpm is installed.

2) You will also need the Course File Area Repository plugin and the Repository file manager block.
Please download these plugins from the Moodle plugins database. The Course File Area Repository will
need to be activated on the Moodle repository configuration page before AutoView will function correctly.
