I thought I'd drop a quick ntoe to let folks know how the site was going, and give a sneak peak of the UI. Most of the functionality is done. What I still need to do is:
- Implement comments. I will be using Alagad's CAPTHA component for this. (Thanks to them for donating it!)
- Search
- RSS
- Security stuff. As folks know, I'm a bit anal about my URL params, so I need to a quick once through.
- FAQ. This is partially done actually, and I'll probably launch with it being incomplete for now.
And finally, here is a screen shot. The design is not mine. I got it from the Open Source Web Design site.
I love Open Source Web Design.
Being one of those "I can't design my way out of a paper bag". I've ripped, I mean repurposed a lot of designs from there to pretty up apps I've developed.
OSWD and free-stock-photos, designs for the artistically challenged.
Looks great, btw, can't wait to read the articles.

On your main page, or whatever page will display your latest cookbook articles, will you code it by parsing the xml feed, or will you just run custom SQL statements?
Why not have the function (getEntries) parse the XML instead of running an SQL statement? Is it a preference, or is there technically a better reason to run an SQL statement? Assuming you have the programming ability to do both no problem, and that you have an RSS feed running.
