Re: [Handle-info] Editing location weight attributes
You can assign any type to a handle value. Using hdl-admintool, click the "Add..." button then "Add Blank Value". Now you can enter 10320/loc as the type and the XML you want as the UTF-8 data of the handle value.
10320/loc is intended as a more flexible replacement for multiple values of type URL. You can have multiple values of type URL, but you cannot assign them weights. I expect "showurls" is showing you that the URL values are treated as having weight 0? That's just showing their behavior for proxy resolution, not an actual attribute of the handle value.
10320/loc should give you the behavior you want. Tell me the handle that you tried to create with a 10320/loc value, and I will look and see why it is not working for you.

And the docs imply 10320/loc behavior should apply to multiple index values of type URL — or at least, the weight attributes for such handles are available via the ‘showurls’ action parameter.

So the default resolution is to url X, but urls Y and Z are options *if* you specify them.
