Right.

All the content has to do is decide what articles to pull and display
them. If you want, for example, a page that displays a flexible number
of articles you could certainly do:
<UL>
<?
foreach ($argv as $id) {
$art = mgd_get_article($id);
if ($art) { ?><LI>&(art.title);</LI> <? }
}
?>
</UL>
You could equally well have used tables, it's just an illustration.
You could call this page (assuming it was marked active) as
/path/to/page/55/3488/3/12/66
and it would display those articles in order. You could do something
similar for article ranges, or date ranges.
One doesn't generally put content in the page content. It's more usual
to have code in the page content to display articles.
