regenerated the html and now they all appear modified - I think its minor formatting stuff, but thought I'd commit it all anyway

13Filters allow you to group together into a subcollection all documents in an
14index for which a metadata value matches a given pattern.
15<p></p>
16To create a filter, click the "Define Filters" tab and enter a name for the
17new filter into the "Subcollection filter name:" field. Next choose a
18document attribute to match against, either a metadata element or the name of
19the file in question. Enter a regular expression to use during the matching.
20You can toggle between "Including" documents that match the filter, or
21"Excluding" them. Finally, you can specify any of the standard PERL regular
22expression flags to use when matching (e.g. "i" for case-insensitive matching).
23Finally, click "Add Filter" to add the filter to the "Defined Subcollection Filters"
24list.
25<p></p>
26To remove a filter, select it from the list and click "Remove Filter".
27<p></p>
28To alter a filter, select it from the list, change any of the values that
29appear in the editing controls and click "Replace Filter" to commit the changes.
