Re: [Fwd: [pgsql-www] Finishing the Portal]

Hi Ewald,

I got the following error when entering a long story:

Warning: pg_exec() query failed: ERROR: parser: parse error at or near
"s" in /usr/local/www/www/form_db.php on line 13

I suspect you forgot to AddSlashes() and it barfed on a single quote in
my text.

some other notes:

- On the Users' Lounge mirror page, the title is 'Select a download
mirror...'. This should probably be changed to 'Select a mirror site...'

- The Users' Lounge mirrors should probably point to
http://mirror.site/users-lounge/

- We need to add the stats from GBorg. I forget where they come from at
the moment, but will look into it.

Looking good though - thanks for the effort.

Regards, Dave.

The forms are built in the page and are functional
maybe some design issues.

The data will also be inserted into the database
It's now time to think about what is left

I think we said some time ago that the messages could
just go to the pgsql-www list and be handled by whoever picks them up.
The list is closed after all.

One question regarding the news and events forms

Who will check the news and events and approve
them?

Should I send a mail to someone?
Or is one looking into the db and set the
approved flag on true?

Ewald, I'd recommend using a form
embedded in the page, since a pop-up
is probably going to need javascript,
and we probably have a diverse
enough group of browsers to avoid
javascript if possible.

Also, when it submits it needs to be
inserted into the new database in
not approved status. It can then mail it
to the list for someone to go
approve it.

ok I will take that over.
should this be a popup or a form

Great, thanks. It does look better I
think - Marc?

One thing I completely forgot - at the
bottom of the news and event
headlines on index.html, there are
options to submit news/events. These
need a simple form, again built using
php/buildstatics that allow anyone
to submit news or an event. I think it
should just email it to the
lists, then whoever of us picks it up
can deal with it.

Thoughts?
