Userland??</title></head><body>
<div>Hi,</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Sorry this is going to be a bit complicated. I'm trying to figure
out if Frontier/Radio Userland is capable of doing something like
this...</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Basically I'm trying to set up something that's kind of a variant
cross between a blog and a discussion forum.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Here's what's involved:</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>1. Person A posts several entries (either blog-style and/or
discussion topic style) every day</div>
<div>2. Person B "replies/comments" to those entries and
adds new entries.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>So far this is very much like a e-mail going back and
forth...</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>3. (next day) Person A will want to print out the "e-mail"
including *full* replies/comments. Basically you can look at this like
the entries in a discussion forum, but in "expanded" format,
as if #1 above consisted of main topics in an outline and #2 above
consisted of subtopics (replies) and main topics (new entries).</div>
<div> Here's a catch: Person A will<b> only</b> want
to print out:</div>
<div> A. All new entries
posted by Person B</div>
<div> B. All old entries
posted by Person A that have replies from Person B</div>
<div> (Maybe this could be
done with a "list all entries that have a modification date of x
and list all entries with comments that have a mod date of
x")</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>4. Person A will then post more entries and/or reply to person
B's entries and/or person B's replies.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>5. Person B will then need to print out the same items as person
A, that is:</div>
<div> A. All new entries posted by Person A</div>
<div> B. All old entries posted by Person B that
have replies from Person A</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>And so forth.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Basically, if you take a typical blog such as Radio Userland,
"expand" the comments so they show on the same page as the
blog entries, *and* have the entries listed in chronological order of
*comments* (or blog entry if no comments), *then* let me format it so
it only shows e.g. all blog entries and comments modified on that
date, that would pretty much be what I'm looking for...ideally.</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>I hope this isn't too complicated a question. Thank you for your
time!</div>
<div><br></div>
<div>Best regards,</div>
<div>Ed Wu</div>
