Hi. I wanted to make a webpage (text only) that allowed visitors to edit the text, and save it to the page. Afterwards, anyone who visits the page sees the edited version. I have looked around and seen some php scripts which create a forum style webpage and was wondering if it is possible to use php to accomplish my goals (editable forums?) The spes for the server I am using if it helps are: Linux, SSH/FTP Access, PHP4 support, One MySQL database.
If you have a solution that is not php based I would appreciate it as well.
Thanks muchly.Sure. Create a page that echoes data from one or more database tables in the appropriate places on the page. Create a simple form that displays the content of each of the editable fields. When the form is submitted, the database fields are updated and the web page content is changed.
Is that what you're after? And you might want to have the form require a password to stop passing lunatics and trolls from mangling your page by creative editing.
