[ic] HTML in SQL database
>You can serve pages from a database table, we will call it "files" for the

I have been serving the whole web site from database using ZOPE for about four
years now and I love the concept. Updating the site is a question of
uploading a couple of files and everything else is done automatically. I am
however forced by circumstances to change for IC (Perl v Python problem) and
I need something really flexible.
