I haven't modified the code. My cgi uses all of the tmda commands as if running from a CLI. So if you make any bugfixes, I will still be able to take advantage of them. Trust me, I think tmda is one of the best pieces of software to ever come down the open-source pike, but I did not find the templating system very intuitive. In fact it was outright cryptic if you've never been exposed to python or ht2html before. Which now that I've been told that the templates from the actual install directory are used, it's not so bad. Anyway, I was not trying to stir anything or attempting one-up anyone. I figured I would contribute some open-source code of my own. I'm not trying to replace anyone or anything. I wanted something a little different, so I wrote what fit me without modifying any of the actual tmda code. If I seem terse, please allow me to apologize now as this has been an absolutely horrid and terrible week for me. My intent was not to offend but to merely contribute.

If you don't like the look, change the templates. tmda-cgi does not have to look like anything in particular. All of this can be changed without touching the code. This means that you can still get our bugfixes as we find them. > 3) Because my boss and I determined that we needed to simplify the > interface for our customers. It is very easy to remove options from the templates. If you don't want an option, simply remove it instead of reinventing the wheel.
