With only a record in pages table, you won't be able to get something useful I think. What about the content itself? > and creates the page record with the submitted data.

Administer a website without even logging to the BE? Or use the website as a blogging tool? If so, then install tt_news, comments, and other useful extensions... > So the best way would be a user-friendly form embedded in the normal > website.

IMHO The scenario is not clear enough I think to understand whether you should create some FE plugin to create your pages or if you definitively should propose your users to buy a good book or read a documentation about TYPO3's BE. -- Xavier Perseguers http://xavier.perseguers.ch/en/tutorials/typo3.html _______________________________________________ TYPO3-english mailing list [email protected] http://lists.netfielders.de/cgi-bin/mailman/listinfo/typo3-english
