Re: [PHP-DOC] editing user contributed notes From: Jesus Castagnetto (jmcastagnetto <email protected>)

Poking around after looking at the source of cvs-auth.inc and
admin-notes.php (used bonsai.php.net).

Initially I thought the db had been renamed (from "php3" to "php"
perhaps, Line 93), nut looking at shared-manual.inc I noticed that I
was not correct.

I'm fiddling with the script now, I will be commiting versions as I
debug, because I do not have direct access to the db.
