Understand completely.
I literally just came back from the couch (no, not _that_ one!, my programming couch ;) where I was working on the next version .. so lets see what we already agree on :)
what phpads offers:(from the readme) Summary: phpAds is a banner management and tracking system written in PHP3. Currently it can - manage multiple banners (any size) per client
Yup. Main part here is just the dtml/html for it. Well, that and choice of storage. phpAds stores all in an SQL database, right?
yes, and are you going to use sql in the future? or just stay with zodb? i would think going with sql is better in the sense that most of us have that 2G fs limit, and putting data in sql would help separate data from zodb.
- send statistics to clients via email
On what kind of schedule? By request, or by cron-job type setup? it's actually done by cron, and i would think you can do that easily.
- show random, pre-defined or HTML/image banners
Little more specific, if possible?
well, i guess you have it now, where you can weight the banner.
So far, I believe the following are set for the next version (by mid-March if all goes well):
o Click tracking o Stats (Views, Clicks, Click-through ratio, views/clicks left) o Keywords o Ways to avoid ZODB growth for each view/click.
i'll be waiting for this eagerly. BTW, i'd be glad to help in any ways i can. a little warning tho, i'm not an accomplished programmer, i wish i were, and know only so much sql. and i don't think i got good english! thanks -- ------------------------------------------------------ http://www.kedai.com.my/kk Am I Evil?
