We could have a database(s)(faq's, howto's,projects,etc) that Authentic user's could edit as they wish. Abase can then process the database with the appropriate layout and there you have your updated html page. So this can certainly be done online with a decent browser. You just have to back sure the design and layout of the page is cool. The post-a-project page would be pretty easy to implement. Take a look at http://167.216.3.16/smotherparty/new/ Check out fan club guestbook and Smother board and the chat thing too if you want. also look at http://167.216.3.16/lorrin.wong/ These are all done with Abase The design of this is kinda crappy. We have to find someone with an artistic touch. I strongly believe in keeping things simple and automated as much as possible. I think our 'abase' is a step in that direction for webstuff. Oh, the database needs to be tab delimited for the moment. If your database is some other form I am pretty sure we can make it fit. Sorry this email is so ugly. Let me know what you think! Mark
