Or at least that <tip> has to be at the beginning on a line. Then you wouldn't have to worry about commented tips, and you probably should ignore them anyway, because the original message would have gotten the tip parsed out already. Also, how about rewriting the <tip> tag with an id attribute when you process it. Then if you find the tip again with a matching ID, you can check the contents against the DB and either ignore or update, rather than inserting again. That'd be helpful for typo correction and/or evolving examples. cheers, barneyb On 9/29/05, Michael Dinowitz <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> wrote: > Once some side issues are dealt with, I'll have all of the tips loaded into > its own table and then into its own feed.
