Re: Posting Links to a page

A simple PHP script, built right into the web page, would allow a user to
submit a URL, check it to see if it is a valid link to an active web page,
format it into an HTML  link, and add it to the page guestbook-style (top or
bottom of existing list.)

A touch more complex would be to store the links in a database like MySQL,
and then deliver them alphabetically or whatever.

Subject: Posting Links to a page


I work in a school district and would like to set up a page where staff
members can post links that others may find interesting.

What is the best way to achieve this (I don't want a message board type
page, I just want users to be able to add to the links page)?

TIA
