in reply to Best way to 'add modules' to web app?

Although I agree with the other contributers (chromatic and The Mad Hatter) that it is hard to design in advance to unknown requirements, it might be useful to keep a few design patterns in mind.

Specifically, you might have a look at the Filter pattern (GoF pattern), as well as the Dynamic Linkage pattern (Grand98).

References are Design Patterns and Patterns in Java.

Just my 2 cents, -gjb-

    If you need a FREE patterns book, better: Bruce Eckell's Thinking in Patterns. http://64.78.49.204/TIPatterns-0.9.zip He is a great teacher and an expert.

    But I guess that before thinking in patterns one should be aware of what is structuring well some code...
