in reply to CGI/FTP security question

While it's not a full blown CMS, you might like to look at the collaborative wiki work which is happening (which I am involved with). This has several things in common with your approach: multiple types of data store (MySQL, Postgres, DBD::SQLite), different formatters, etc.

    I honestly do not know what a Wiki is (Sad, I've been on the internet this long, and still have not figured it out). I thought it was some manner of dictionary before :/. Could you clue me in?

    Anyways, looking at what you appear to be doing, it seems to be similar, but a completely different style from what I am doing. I am working on creating something that would require little, or no, training for the average end user to use. Most likely in the style of Angelfire. Just make sure that some manner of storage is up, and work from there.

      See this entry on the Everything2 encyclopaedia (which itself is not a wiki, but shares many of the characteristics of a wiki). The writeup by "Ponder" is written by me.

      I often have to explain to people what a wiki is. In principle, a wiki is a website with user editable content. Most wikis are open to everyone - it is usually not mandatory for people to register before they add material to the wiki.

    • Ward'sWiki - the original Wiki.
    • Wikipedia - now multilingual
    • UseModWiki
    • OpenGuides - A set of wikis for cities

    Hope this helps

        No, a Wiki is definitly not what I am going for, but thanks for the help.

        While it will be web updatable, there will be parts of this project (the one that uses the TFTP server), that will have the ability to allow authors to write small browser based games, forum software, and various other features. It is not so much soly a web updatable website, but an architecture for a website.
