Hey chief !!,
I am working on the MWS for this week...and trying not announce things that
will get people in trouble...(b5 came out yesterday, it makes great coffee
and will help you win the lottery!...ooops)
Anyway...I have been thinking of putting a Newbie tip in every edition (
every other) and then putting an archive of those tips somewhere. What
would you think of that?
If you are willing there are I need two things from you...I would also like
to be able to send you the finished art before I commit it to publication
so I don't say anything too off the mark...
1) A few of the newbie questions you think need addressing...I was going
to look at the FAQ and use that as a source as well. ( In fact double
entering some of those into a newbie section might get more people into the
FAQ as well.) I seem to be a perpetual newbie so I have been going back
over all of the questions I have asked over the last year to see what I can
get out of them.
I thought the following would work for the first few tutorials/newbienotes
1.dynamic or contextual page contstruction (below) 2.multihoming with
linux/apache/midgard 3.database/information architecture
2) The first thing I was going to work on was the subject below...I know it
was something I struggled with at one point and it is not always easy to
understand...even though it is pretty straight forward once it works...
I will pose a few basic questions, any comments I make are in ( )......
Q. Where does this code-init come from? How do I use it? (In my experience
we don't really talk much about this element but it seems pretty key)
Q. How do I know when to make a page or page element active?
Q. What is argv? Why does it return things to me?

No, it's just the 'last' page that matters. For an active page
http://sitename/chots/ and when accessing
http://sitename/chots/3001/nextpage/, $argv whould be
('3001', 'nextpage').
