Hello all, Have a page that has a grid of information that needs to be easily editable and looking for suggestions on how to accomplish it in a drupal-esque way. There is no complex logic.
Here is an example of what the page will emulate. http://skimadriver.com/snowreport.php
Depending on the amount of manpower/budget you have available, I would say (high to low): * custom module. Allows you to make the admin UI tailor made for the client. As well as the result for vieuwers. Design your own (highly optimised) tables, simple code, performs a lot better then any general (cck/views) will avver be able to, and gets you 98% where the client wants to get. * Custom modules, only handling the display/ The input UI would be CCK, plus some (unfriendly, scattered) settings and GUI pages. Often clients (think they) don't need fancy input, as long as the output is 100% what they need. This will get you very close there. The input is often a digital version of ductape+rubberbands+paperclips and some jumping hoops. * Views+cck. All ready made, but will never get you 100 where the client wants to be. Often fine enough, but ofteb it gets you less then 60% where the client wants to get. So it may be way out of line.
