At last, I have a good question for vox-tech! I've been asked to put together a simple web-based file management/ sharing system. The system would be used by a small group to share PDF, PS and other types of files. We'd like any (validated) participating user to be able to add content (upload a file) along with perhaps some comments or other simple information (a single comment field would probably suffice). It's probably a good idea to allow only the uploader or editor to delete entries. One extra level of complexity would be helpful for increasing the utility of this thing: the ability to create new "folders" for organizing the information. The platform is linux (redhat).
I realize that a motivated individual could do this quite nicely with apache, mysql, and, say, php, however, I'd like to avoid the database, and, frankly, I don't want to spend very much time on this. Also, a few minutes with google and freshmeat convinced me there are 1000 existing solutions--I'm hoping this email will solicite some good leads. So, any ideas? Opinions? Experience with something like this? A simple php-based or perl-based (or something else?) solution would be nice. A straightforward groupware-type web application would be useful too, but they tend to include lots of stuff that's not needed (and won't be needed) here. shawn. _______________________________________________ vox-tech mailing list [EMAIL PROTECTED] http://lists.lugod.org/mailman/listinfo/vox-tech
