I haven't hear about it.
No, Macromedia Contribute does not reach inside a database, sorry. If you're using an application server alongside your web server then we can see this content while editing in Contribute, but you'd still be editing the regular HTML text, and would not be telling a database which records to change.

I'm confident that this first version does meet the needs of many, but you're right, that would be a great piece of work to tackle for a subsequent version. Recap: If there's a particular way you'd like Contribute to change to match your own needs, then the team would love to hear about it, thanks: http://www.macromedia.com/support/email/wishform/?6213=27 jd John Dowdell, Macromedia Developer Support, San Francisco (Best to reply on-list, to avoid my mighty spam filters!)
