On the filesystem:
category_0000001 (dir -- everything for category 1)
details.txt (file -- title, description, perms, *shrug*)
article_0000001.txt (file -- you know... THE ARTICLE)
comments_0000001 (dir -- all the comments for article of same index)
comment_0000001.txt (a comment)
comment_0000002.txt (another comment)
comment_0923874.txt (a very busy article)
category_0000002 (dir -- everything for category 2)
details.txt (file -- title, description, perms, *shrug*)
article_0000001.txt (file -- you know... THE ARTICLE)
comments_0000001 (dir -- all the comments for article of same index)
comment_0000001.txt (a comment)
comment_0000002.txt (another comment)
article_0000002.txt (file -- you know... THE ARTICLE)
comments_0000002 (dir -- all the comments for article of same index)
comment_0000001.txt (a comment)
comment_0000002.txt (another comment)
comment_0000002.txt (yet another comment)
category_0000xxx (dir -- everything for category xxx)
details.txt (file -- title, description, perms, *shrug*)
article_0000xxx.txt (file -- article title, details, perms, etc.)
comments_0000xxx (dir -- all the comments for article of same index)
comment_0000xxx.txt (a comment)
By using this kind of organization it becomes simplistic to retrieve
ordered entries, first 5 entries, last 5 entries, whatever you want.
Mind you, ordering by category name will be more work, but I'll leave
that to you since I'd use a database :)
Cheers,
Rob.
