Contribute is far more stable that using ActiveEdit and indeed is better, but ActiveEdit is far better at editing Dynamic data as it can pass it back into the Datasource - this is where Contribute falls down.

The sites I create use ActiveEdit which allows the client to log in and add images, links, some formatting and the text content. This does not affect the underlying code. That considered, I find no use for Contribute in my operation. ===================================== Douglas White group Manager mailto:[EMAIL PROTECTED] http://www.samcfug.org ===================================== ----- Original Message ----- From: "Matt Brown" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: "CF-Talk" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Monday, January 06, 2003 4:15 PM Subject: Re: Got an opinion on MM Contribute? | At 12:10 PM 1/6/2003 -0500, you wrote: | >a little pricey per seat.
