My new site is related to this thread, so I would like to hear
suggestions about the following issues. The site is largely dedicated
to serving out a selection of poems, essays, stories, etc. I am
trying to bridge the gap between relatively easy contributions and
adequate performance when serving the file (aren't we all?).
1) Should I store the text with HTML formatting? Most of the items
will have formatting needs (bold, italic, explicit line breaks, and
of course paragraph breaks) and short of some kind of custom
shorthand, HTML seems like the best way.
2) How should I deal with the input and splitting of longer stories:
should the user submit the html/text file and then I will have CF
split the file into different database entries using some algorithm
for a word count and then split at the nearest sentence or paragraph
break or ??
3) Could someone explain how I might create tables to handle the
split text? Should I just have a single table with
title, partnum, text and then when displaying check if there is more
than one partnum, or should I have a couple of tables?
I'm starting to wonder if I should do this with a db-driven site at
all :) But I've already been tied to doing a CF site with Fusebox,
though the methodology is largely irrelevant.
