FAQ Scripts

[mark]

Hi All -

Does anyone know of any decent (preferably) free FAQ and FAQ admin scripts?

Preferable (although not essential) - ASP based. Perl or PHP would be fine also.

Cheers - Mark

Probably one on hotscripts.com

BTW - eventually found an ASP one called FAQmentor from <a href='http://www.aspcode.net/newaspcode/index.php' target='_blank'>http://www.aspcode.net/newaspcode/index.php</a>

The best FAQ/KB system that we have found is an open source one called PHP MyFAQ (http://www.phpmyfaq.de/). It has to be the best system that we have ever used (of about 20 different ones, including commercial systems). Rather than giving it a glowing review, here are the features listed on their site:

phpMyFAQ 1.4 is a multilingual, completely database-driven FAQ-system. For the time being a MySQL database (support for other databases is under development) is used to store all data, PHP 4.1.0 (or higher) is needed in order to access this data. phpMyFAQ also offers a Content Management-System, flexible multi-user support, a news-system, user-tracking, language modules, templates, extensive XML-support, PDF-support, a backup-system and an easy to use installation script.

Or just use HTML

Why bother with HTML? Isn't that what the PRE tags are for :flowers:

I think <pre> tags are for newbies and do not really reflect your skills as a designer...
