Both of those archives serve up html, it's just that when you submit stories you have to do so as text files.

852prospect, once you have submitted the files, saves them as .html files on the server. What I propose is to work with the archive server itself to save the stories as html on the server in the same format and stick the meta information in the db.

In the case of WWOMB it's slightly more complicated, because I believe it saves text with boldface and italic tags in the db and then formats the text on output. So, yeah, I'd have to swap out the p tags for line returns, but leave the itals and bold. I'm not sure, too, how to resolve the user issue (WWOMB has actual users who can log in and edit their stories after the fact. So there's the issue of mapping ljuser name to WWOMB username.)

HTML doesn't work in the subject.
