Welll..
The problem I'm running into now is that ok:
I make a table called Review.
With ID, Title,URL,Author,Date,Genre....and finally TEXT (a memo field since
I'm using MSAccess).
Now what I want, is for someone to click say Reviews>First Person
Shooters>Quake Team Arena..
and WHAMMO BLAMMO!
CF does a Query and with the nimble use of <CFOUTPUT> I splash the text onto
the screen...
The problem is that I myself, write rather detailed reviews..that can easily
extend to three or four pages (In Word).
If I just use a <CFOUTPUT> to display the text (Perhaps putting HTML code in
there too..I'm not sure) then this thing will scroll down for ages.
How the heck do I split the outputted text onto more than one page, linked
by a Previous/Next button, or better yet a simple text Nav for the Review
Page: <1,2,3,4>??
Remember,the Text is all going to be in one big field. If I had to manually
decide where a split should occurr and use three or four text fields or
'pages' then I might as well format HTML.
Understand, what I'm trying to get away from here is having to manually use
HTML to fix up each Document, and then post 4 seperate pages manually to the
site.
I want one of our reviewers to be able to open a web browser, fill in the
fields above (after the review has been approved) and Paste the text of the
review in..click Submit and
PRESTO!
It's there.(I have this part covered ;-) )
I'm at a loss at the moment as to how I can achieve that, break up the text
in 'pages' so to speak, with CF.
I've sorted out how I'm gonna be laying out the site etc.
It seems I just had "Analysis" block yesterday afternoon ;-P
Does anyone think I should move this over to CF-Talk at this point??

Ok...I give in.
Currently in final testing for one site. I'm also plugging it into another
site. I want to improve the section management. Currently you have to
handcrank the database entries to identify sections correctly. Adding a
front end to this would make it reasonably perfect.
