With Jennifer's permission, I'm recoding the addalink script to run with a mySQL database. This will mean a few more features and the alphabetizing will finally work. In addition to the current features, there will be user creation and login (which serves two purposes, one, you don't need to password protect the directory and two, you can assign more than one user to create lists. That might come into play better in the future) Also, you will be able to add a description to your link so you can display that with the output or just use it for yourself to keep things straight. And you'll also be able to choose whether you'd like the links to open in a new window or not (in short, think a php/mysql version of blogrolling… heh)
I'm doing this mostly for myself, but will be giving the code back to Jennifer so she can look it over and advise whether she'd like to post it (I'm always wary of rewriting people's scripts and posting the results, although aside from the javascript, this is a total rewrite)
Anyone else interested in a mySQL version? (If you're only allotted one mySQL database in your account, you can use one database for a number of different tables, so if you're worried about that, don't be. If you don't have access to a mySQL database, I am assuming the text database version will continue to be worked on as well.)
I'm mostly done the scripts, just need to test things and retest them and develop an installation script, so look for it soon.
Before I hand it over to Jennifer though, I'd like to know if people are interested in any other features? Besides what the script can do currently, what would you be interested in having it do?
