texte = My next project with webCatalog is to build a newsletter system. My needs are for a newsletter dynamically built with 11-15 stories each contributed by a different author. I will be archiving all of the old stories to create virtual back issues.Has anyone done this type of thing without trouble. I am wondering about potential problems I might have with a database that would have some fairly large text fields.I am wondering if I would be better off keeping the actual stories within a webcat database or if I would be better off saving each story as a file that could be included and then simply keeping track of the files with a webcat database? any thoughts? thanks,dan t.
