Yeah, simple, but effective :) With modern browsers you could even move this logic into the client: It just reads the files (using HTTP as fs) and builds up everything else on its own, using javascript. > Also, because we use the real FS to keep the data, we don't need a synthetic > file system program to implement any interface whatsoever (unless you count > the > web as such thing). But a synthetic filesystem would also be fine for creating everything on-the-fly. POST requests could be sent through a special file. The actual http stuff would just be a tiny frontend :) cu -- ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Enrico Weigelt, metux IT service -- http://www.metux.de/ cellphone: +49 174 7066481 email: [EMAIL PROTECTED] skype: nekrad666 ---------------------------------------------------------------------- Embedded-Linux / Portierung / Opensource-QM / Verteilte Systeme ----------------------------------------------------------------------
