There's a new contest posted over on php-editors.com this morning. The objective: to create a server-side, PHP/HTML based editing system for your pages/site.

OK, so most of us have edited files remotely with a shell/ftp connection and this can work fine with certain tools. But when it comes to working on remote files with only a http connection limitations start creeping in. It very common to use a file manager tool with an 'edit files' feature. These let you edit code in a basic form textarea box. Sometimes this causes characters like '&' to be converted causing PHP code to be messed-up (remind you of any editors of the past??). It will be very interesting to see what ideas you come up with to solve this problem.

The ending date is April 9th, 2004, and all submissions should be sent to contest@php-editors.com. Several of the prizes on this one include a copy of the latest Zend Studio, Nusphere PHPEd, a one year php|architect subscription, and a free domain name of your choosing.
