Moridin Posted August 10, 2006 Share Posted August 10, 2006 That is not a bad idea. Not bad at all. I'd like to see how this goes. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
reportingsjr Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 like a user updated blog? Not a bad idea actually. Just have to control spam. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moridin Posted August 11, 2006 Share Posted August 11, 2006 There is a specific modification for IPB 2.x.x that allows people to submit articles (not the blog feature that can be bought together with the IPB 2.x.x). Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chocolate570 Posted August 12, 2006 Share Posted August 12, 2006 It's a pretty good idea. Would be nice to have some various, often-used answers to repeated questions, but then that would almost defeat the purpose of W3S itself... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

To some extent, yes.Although there are so much more possible ways to implement it. They could deal with tips & Tricks and howto's not covered in the W3S tutorials.In the end, it would probably drive more traffic to W3S Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
notclive Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 i think its a good idea, maybe it could have a wiki or would people leave the normal tutorials? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moridin Posted August 13, 2006 Share Posted August 13, 2006 i think its a good idea, maybe it could have a wiki or would people leave the normal tutorials?Although a wiki requires a lot of managment from the staff. If it is an article section, the only thing that would need to be done is approve/deny. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Chandra.Vedantham@gmail.com Posted August 14, 2006 Author Share Posted August 14, 2006 I agree with Moridian.It could be implemented in simple terms as having an approve and deny feature.The articles would be helpful for those who are looking for some help in creating a new set of component or utility or a Custom Control(as in Asp.Net since I am a .Net Guy ) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
joecoolaug Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I like that idea very much.Well, I just thought of something. W3schools is only about web language tutorials. Maybe it could be a posting forum for articles on www languages. Ahh... I love stating the obvious. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moridin Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 I cannot emphasize enough that my username is Moridin, not "Mordon, "Moridine", "Moridian" or any other version of it. This happens to me a lot.A forum with user written articles is one options, although a collection of non-topic articles are more professional and accesible in my opinion.

aspnetguy Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 if they are not organized into topics they will b hard to search. Even large blogs are divided into categories for searching. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Moridin Posted August 15, 2006 Share Posted August 15, 2006 if they are not organized into topics they will b hard to search. Even large blogs are divided into categories for searching.The article modification from invisionize has categories. I mean removing the format that is in a topic. Think a normal forum topic vs. a blog entry :)I've put a link to an example of an article section in my signature. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
