1) One easy solution is using the info.cgi Mod written for Links 2.0, which can be easily modified to work with Links SQL...I modded widgetz's detail.cgi to parse data from three different tables in my Links SQL database. Alternatively, all you have to do is copy the variables for Detailed pages in the Links.pm file and then make copies of the sub build_detailed_view to build the extra detailed pages. You will have to change some of the variables in these new subs to include field names before the extension variable.

2) See the following line:



in the sub build_detailed_view in the nph-build.cgi file?

Change it to the following:



4) It really depends on how much traffic your site receives, CPU rates, Memory, etc. There is really no absolute number.

5) You could experience some delays in processing requests from the server and if you are editing the same category at the same time, there is a risk of duplicating ID numbers for Links.

6) I don't understand your "like" request.

7) Category searches have been discussed many times in the Links SQL Discussion Forum and I believe that widgetz did upgrade his Links 2.0 Category Search to Links SQL and the codes are located in the forum I referred to.

Hope this helps.
