I have gotten a project on my desk. It involves updating the bios for a bunch of people, however, my boss does not want into a database (I think that would be the best solution but lets not go there). Although, he never said anything about flat files! 🙂

So, my solution would be to create a PHP page with some form elements with like “Education” and a text area for it, “Awards” and a textarea ect. and just turn the plaintext into a semblance of HTML.

I was wondering if anyone had any other better ideas?

The formats look similar to:

[center]
name
address[/center]

education: blah blah blah

Awards: blah blah

Edit 1: Eventually we will want people to be able to update their own bios.
