    Salvo - 2002-10-05

    Hi all,

    I have downloaded the nice script Quotes and I thank Edward Ritter for providing us with it.

    Now, I have a nice idea to make it even better but as I am not good in php.

    It shouldn't take long to do this for the right person or for Edward himself if not too busy.

    Under the author and the random quote, have a link which would take to a new page with all the authors with the "previous-next option". Clicking on one author, a list of all the quotation for that author would show. (with the "previous-next" option)

    And it would be nice to have a small search engine like "staff module". In actual fact some if not all the extra script could be take from there. 

    I hope someone (or the original author) will take this small task..

    Thank you

         While that is indeed a nice idea, it's a bit beyond the intention of the quotes module. It's meant to be something simple that can display quotes, quips, riddles, customer satisfaction quotes, etc. It is also a model for other would be module developers to use as a guide to make their own module. I balk at adding any more complexity to it for those reasons.  If someone else wants to make a "Super Quotes" module, be my guest, just leave the original as is as a teaching aid.
