Yes, thanks. You are making sense to me now.

Nothing. This would be your path to choose, young grasshopper.

As long as you typecast $_GET['id_page'], you're pretty much all set.
Your search engine rankings might not be as high as they could be,
though, but that's a whole different story alltogether.

Andras' advice seems pretty okay to me, although maybe *I* wouldn't do it
that way. But then, I tackled my version of the problem you are trying to
solve some time ago by deciding I needed a CMS. That was back when I was
using HTML-Kit. ;-)

There are lots of tools available and Quanta could be one of them. *I*
would write a script to interface with the database and use TinyMCE, but
that's just me.

At least you got a good long thread out of it! :-)

Be well... Nico
