hey, i am looking for a news management script which should work like cutenews but the only problem cutenews has is that it cannot handle big data. I need a script which can handle large data..

@ganichauthorFeb 24.2011 — #i want a script which should be easily integrated with the website and should fully customizable like cutephp.. the problem with cutephp is that it can't handle large data since it stores all the news articles in one .txt file on the server.. as the number of articles grow.. the size of .txt file increases and it becomes impossible for the server to handle the script.. i want a script which should be easily integrated into the website and should have the following features.
- article categories
- admin panel to add news
- should use mySQL to store articles or it should create .htm files for articles..
i hope you get the point..
by the way if i want to write my own script.. what is the easiest way to write a script which should have categories, show news on webpages, have admin password protected add news area.. should create seperate files on the server or use mysql..nothing complicated.. simple news posting script..

It's never simple. :p
I'd start with the database design: a good, normalized data structure up front will save you a lot of grief down the road.
At a minimum, just for the articles, this probably means at least 3 tables: article, category, and article_to_category (allowing articles to belong to more than one category).
