  • It does what it says on the tin (apologies to Ronseal).

    I am a complete novice wth PHP, and yet I not only installed it straight away (and it worked first time!), but in a few hours I had completely customised it to my site theme and changed the way it works to match other parts of my site (by calling the summary from a html page with a bit og PHP to include the summary html file, changing the formatting of its output HTML AND having the full news item HTML file popup rather than open in the summary window). The main downsides are the lack of 'decent' security and the fact that as it stores the news in html and NOT on a database, you must manually delete old news - but that is really easy if you know how to FTP and edit HTML. The upside is that it doesn't use a database, has no fancy bells and whistles and is REALLY easy for a user to add news items.

  • It's really easy to use!

    I have scoured the hotscripts.com site looking for a really simple news article script that is good. I didn't want fluff, I wanted something functional that didn't need MySql. This is it! It's easy to customize and use. Maybe not the most secure script here but good enough.
