Memo from Martin P Burns of PricewaterhouseCoopers

-------------------- Start of message text --------------------

Note that this doesn't have to be a 'real' database if your site is
smallish and doesn't have heavy traffic loads.

You *could* use static text files as a repository, and again use
a record ID in the URL.

Note that for this, you *will* need some kind of concurrency control,
even if it's just file locking...

Cheers
Martin

Hi Joel,


If your server can stand the work ... how 'bout tossing all that bothersome
data into a db ... you could pass a key in the "get" url ... and have access
to all the information you want - from any of your pages.

(...and if your server can't --- buy a nice new one!   ;-)  ... just
kidding!)

I
can't use the "GET" method (append the info the URL) because there is too
much information.

I don't want to create a form with hidden fields and another "Submit" button
because it would be counter-intuitive to the user and kludgey.
