Wikis (was Re3: CGI/FTP security question)

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.	[reply]
