Subject: [PHP-DB] Best way to store/retrieve content??
I'm writing some content management scripts for an online magazine.
I would try to use CSS, instead of complex tables. That way, you only need
to store the structural html in the database and the layout is handled by
CSS--floating images and flowing text are really easy with CSS.

Hi Natalie, no, PDFs won't work. I need to display the content as an HTML
page.

Could you use PDFs
for some of our web
publications for the NCI.
Good luck!

Hi
I have done a similar thing, and found that you can store just the text in
the database.
I added 'Short_content' which was a leader, and some other fields for
management.
I designed a few templates in Dreamweaver and embeded a function to display
the content in the page
eg trtd?php

I will be using CSS for other thing, such as paragraph
formatting, but, not
sure how to use it for creating tables and flowing text
around graphics. Can
CSS really do all
to keep all articles in one data table so searches can
be easily done on all articles.
Thanks!

Actually, CSS is very powerful--way more than simple html. One drawback is
that CSS1 did not include any support for tables
expressions. In parsing the xml, I would use php's xml parser.
Hope this helps a little more--

I like your idea about the [start-stop block]. To maybe
merge what Paul
said with your idea, you could store the name of the function handler
(generates the appropriate content) inside the [].
I meant Peter :)

Hi Peter, thanks a lot for your advice. I think where I'm stuck is how to
best store certain types of articles in a data table. Interviews would be
easy, because it's
