now here is an interesting concept i might use.
Have been looking around for something like this.

Must say my first impression was hmmmm, how do I use it but i guess it's best to put in on my site and experiment with it.

I must say it has potential. Good work D-force, as always

Just send me a PM or something if you want help... that applies to the rest of you, too

germanjulian · Aug 10, 2004, 02:42 PM

nice one. I will have a look at your coding to learn. I am not so good with php and I think this will help me quiete a bit. I want to do an Image Managing system for my final year project at uni.... maybe even a CMS. dont know yet. but I will try

d-force · Aug 10, 2004, 02:44 PM

Feel free to take a look at the code. Also message me if you've got questions about it. And, because of the BSD license, you're allowed to incorporate my code into your code, provided you retain the copyright message

Hehe, i think it can plug into flash...

Just kidding mate, thanks for the cool feedback!

Nice license.

I'm in the process of coding my own CMS. Interesting to see that every one pretty much implements it the same way. If you need any inspiration, look at Mambo. While it is a big security hole, it is very feature rich as well.

I will most certainly - thank you for letting me know!

By the way, there's a reason i implemented the update client...

I want to allow fast and distributed changes to occur quickly, making people having the latest and most well-featured version on their hands quickly...

I'm also thinking of stripping the security/session manager and just releasing it as a thingie on SourceForge with an equally unrestrictive license (The BSD license again, probably)

Do you need root access to install this?

No. I installed it under my regular user in FreeBSD!

Ah, a FreeBSD user. You have seen the light.

Defintely keep the BSD license, unless you really don't like the idea of anyone being able to use your code for anything.

[edit]
I skimmed the code real quick. Seems ok, though it is devoid of comments. The comments that are on the top of your pages should be in php, since it would save a little bandwidth, unless you really want the end user to know what the HTML is for when they read the source. Also, you should put the CSS attributes in a seperate file.

Yes sir.
I have, however, expanded my knowledge and programming experience a bit with Azure...

...this will ultimately be to the TXP users' gain

The design is totally freeform (you design it yourself). AZURE just delivers content and you can edit your content centrally and with an easy-to-use editor. No more broken internal links

This is really nice D-force. I am going to play around with it and see what it can do for me. Good job on it.
