Topic: MessageBase Code Development
The basics are finished. Can now browse the different topics, read the different messages under each topic, post new messages, and reply to existing messages.
Next feature is to show all reply messages indented. And replies to reply messages will be double-indented, and so forth. Am writing a tree-traversal algorythm to do just that. Simple recursion, other than the fact that VBScript has no support for recursion, so I have to handle it by writing code to support it through a stack and arrays. A fun challenge. :)

It's funny what you find out when you actually dive into the code! VBScript does support recursion: Even recursive calls to ADO (database) objects!
Well, obviously you can tell that I got the indented, recursive thread support written! I've temporarily switched my programming focus back to WebHack (my web-based MUD) for a while. (And a tangent through Linux along the way!)
