No more database for you!
I’ve finally solved the problems with the database — I’ve stopped using
it for the news. I had all kinds of problems when I tried to save text
into the database, that contained a '
. The database thought that it was
the end of the string, so I had to escape all the '
s.
But then I found out that my local server at home, and the server at
Netsite differed. My server couldn’t handle the
'
s, while the other coped with them fine. So far I’ve been able to test my
pages at home, and then upload them — if there were a difference, I would
have to build extra tests into my scripts… Thats not a good thing :-)
But now the news lies in normal text-files, made by Emacs. That is another good thing about this new way of storing the news: I don’t have to sit and type them in, in Netscape.
