Looking for a simple flat file events listing system

Thanks Walter. This will certainly come in handy if I end up having to roll my own solution. I’m still hoping I can find an off the shelf solution that I don’t have to write, debug and maintain.

I’m putting together a site for a client and I’m looking for a simple, bare bones, event listing system that she can use to add events to easily. The closest thing I’ve found is the following script which is almost perfect but requires a MySQL backend;
http://newsscriptphp.com/eventscriptphp/demo_eventscript.php

What I’m looking for is;

  • Runs on PHP
  • Flat file (any format - XML, CSV etc)
  • Admin interface to allow her to add, edit and remove items
  • Allows events to be listed n per page
  • Past events should be automatically trimmed

I’m very tempted to code this myself as I’ve most of what I need although the budget won’t cover it if I do. Unfortunately the flat file requirement comes from the fact that she has a rather limiting hosting account which also runs several other sites and tools.

If anyone has any great pointers then I’d love to hear about them.

Tim.
