Tony Will Hate Me!

Authored by: Jason on Sunday, January 13 2002 @ 08:24 pm EST

Evil Jason is in the house today!

My two cents will end up looking like a the buck fifty that won\'t even get you a coffee at Starbucks! Your overworked, thristy and still have a dam caffiene hangover.

Make the text of stories it\'s own table with a relation to the stories table. Then you could do all sorts of display posibilities. I would suggest:

If only one page, it all get put on the home page

If more than one page, page one is on the home page with a link to page two in the read more.

The story page lets you go back and forth though the story with any number of pages; including a link for a \"all on one\" page (no ad revenue here mister).

This is your topic, talk amongst yourselves...

I don\'t hate you. I have thought about doing something similar...just haven\'t had it come to a point where I thought enough people needed it and, as things stand, it works pretty good for me. Not sure about having an entire first page on the homepage, though. I still like having a short, say, 255 character field for the summary/intro. Then the actual story content can be broken up into multiple pages in a separate table.

The reason people blame things on previous generations is that there's only one other choice.
