Question for ya'll: If you have a list, or a number of entries in say a blog or a group of stories, do you manually build the link list or have a list built and let perl, or php, or something do it? I have a list of little stories and I want them to show up in a certain order. I usually manually build the menu at the bottom with Next, Previous, Back to (wherever you started), Back to my page. I build these manually in the HTML like I do with my gemini capsule. It seems to me that there could be and probably is a better way to do this, like storing everything in a json or a perl list or something, and then have php or perl grab the right thing based on the index and how the link increments or decrements the list's index. Do anyone else do this kind of thing? Regardless, I kind of refuse to use javascript. Say what you will be in this setting (and in general) I'd prefer php, perl, python, whatever. I'm still learning (I'm always learning) so any suggestions or pointers would be greatly appreciated. Cheers!
