Hi,
This is basically a post that is that I wanted to continue on with that started in the Links SQL Pre Sales forum regarding another product.
After reading a few search engine optimisations articles, such as
http://hotwired.lycos.com/webmonkey/01/23/index1a.html
It seems that page.cgi should really have the option of using this method. I'm not sure how difficult it would be to make it an optionable feature, so that thoughs on *nix can use it, and people on windows can use it if they install the patch.
Coming from the point of view that dynamic pages are the only way to make a site, this would be a very big feature to add to Links SQL. Big sites such as Amazon.com as using this method to pass parameters. I wouldn't really have much of a problem "hacking" this feature in, as it is really quite basic - just one line of code if you want the easy way out :)
Would it be hard to make this option as a plug in though? I have NO experience with the plug-in system, but from my understanding it doesn't really alter things like page.cgi but rather it adds features?
Anyway - Just some feedback on some research I have been doing which I thought could really improve the product. I understand it can't be on by default due to windows not working with it - but with Linux it only has up sides.
