I've been thinking about using Snitz as an article comment (not content) system. I want the comments to display below the article like the blogs do without using frames or an IFRAME.
Some of the issues: reworking topic.asp into a new page to display on the page, eliminating the header and footer on these pages, adding a redirect to post.asp if people post from the article page so that it takes them back to the article when they're finished.
These actually seems fairly simple that I suspect someone has already done this. Is there a mod, or has someone worked on it and could share some code/advice?
Or, if you don't think this is a good idea, do you have an alternative?
Thanks!<

Astralis ; I've done something similar for oxle, for the frontpage news, the linkdump and the weblogs, and as you know my code is available to anyone.<

Wow! That's very nice!
Have you done anything with the rating system, by chance, where users can also rate the articles?
It's fascinating how you made the first topic the article. Your formatting is nice. I will, instead, be relating the topics to an article in a different table.
I really like what you did and will use your ideas.
BTW, are you using Access or MSSQL Server?<

That's pretty cool... gives me some ideas... any chance I could see what you've done with it so far?<

Still on Access ; planning to to go MS SQL within 6 months, depending on financial resourcesI feared the costs of MSSQL Server too but I eventually converted and now I really don't notice it, even though I am paying a little more.
I know you live in Europe, so I don't know if this recommendation will be good, but go for the $26/mo. (US) plan at www.CrystalTech.com - it's a solid shared hosting company with reasonable rates. (I do not work for them nor do I get a cut). That plan should hold you for a while. I have over 200MB in the forum plus a CMS running on it. I'm paying about $40/mo.<
But, we're getting completely offtopic and getting close to a locked topic as hosting-discussions are not really allowed here @ snitz...
