I hear what you say; but I really do not want to download, install and learn an entire CMS just to add some small function to an existing website... maybe no one else has a need for this - in which case I will obviously have to do the work myself, but its always worth asking first ;-)

A barebones system like you described is definitely possible, but I'm guessing you'll be hard-pressed to find a developer who wants to spend the time building one when something like Lenya which already works well exists. --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] -- This message is subject to the CSIR's copyright, terms and conditions and e-mail legal notice.
