TedMasterWeb Devnotes 

Description:

Devnotes is a 'web page annotation' system that allows visitors to comment on individual pages. if you've ever used macromedia's "live notes", you have an idea of what it is.

Devnotes was originally developed by someone else (please help me here... I can't remember who the original developer was... Hal Helms?).

This version has NO SECURITY and NO WARRENTY OR GUARANTEE is provided. You can use this software AT YOUR OWN RISK - INCLUDING THE RISK OF DELETING EVERYTHING ON YOUR HARD DRIVE (just covering my butt).

Inside the archive you will find a sample index file. You can use the system by auto-including the index file at the end of every request (or include it elsewhere in your page).

The system does not a require a connection to a database. All data is stored in XML files in the "datafiles" folder. The "key" for each page is the basename of the page (see pathinfo() function for a definition of the basename), but the system also tracks the folder hierarchy so you can have pages with duplicate names, but in different directories and the system will keep track of which comments go with which pages.

This is very much a beta and is quite installation sensitive. For example, it will not work with a stock Fedora Core 3 installation (that configuration is missing the Sablotron extension). It will probably also not work with PHP 5 since that extension has been dropped in favor of a more general xsl extension.

MAKE SURE YOUR WEB SERVER IS ABLE TO WRITE FILES TO YOUR DATAFILES DIRECTORY.

Feel free to send feedback. I'll be happy to try and provide updates if you find bugs I can duplicate and fix.
