Creating link to let users know of site updates...

[JulesN]

Sorry, I barely scraped through PHP class... this one is probably fairly simple for most of you fantastic coders... but is there a way to create a link that the users can click on to add their email to a list that automatically shoots them an email whenever there is a site update? Thanks!

There's a way to do whatever you want to do, as long as you know how you want to do it.You will need a database to store the list of email addresses to send emails to, and a page where users can add/remove themselves to and from the database.You will also need some admin system where you can log in and create an update email to send to everyone on the list. You probably don't want it to be automatic, like a process that monitors the date and time on files and sends an email whenever one of them changes, because that would probably get pretty annoying pretty quickly, and would be a lot more complex.
