in reply to Static news system
updated: the poster managed to mangle his own post, but I backed up the history enough to salvage the original question below in italics
hi, i'm very new to perl, very... how can I make a simple news system for a static page with a comment section? where you log in as an admin and are confronted with news submissions form? i dont know much at all so...explain very thoroughly please...i dont know much at all with perl
using server side and stuff, so the news will look good too, not just slopped together, kind of like slashcode, but minus everything else and simpler than the slashcode news and comment system, please. i'm very new and would like to learn a lot more, slashcode was of no help to me, and i want to do something much simpler although easy, i know this is a large request, but please help
Hey trigger, I learned most of my (albeit small) perl skillz by doing small projects exactly like the one you are describing.
You're right when you say this is a big request, but I think you've come to the right place. The only problem is, we (monks) can't really be thorough with the breifing you just gave. There are a few details that will influence your news posting system project that will drastically change the application design. Could you answer the following questions?
#!/home/bbq/bin/perl
# Trust no1!

There are a few details that will influence your news posting system project that will drastically change the application design. Could you answer the following questions?
- Do you have a cgi-bin (or equivalent) at you're server / service provider?
- Do you have a database such as MySQL or mSQL?
- Can you run server side includes (SSI for short)?
- Does your server / service provider run Unix or NT?
- How often do you plan on updating?
- How many people will be updating?
- What is the minimum / maximum size for a post?
- Do you have something up, a URL, that we can look at?
