I want to set up an online dictionary system that would contain some features and, as I am new to eZ Publish, I want first to ask for the opinion of the more experienced of how it would be easiest to implement. So... the dictionary itself will be made out of words. Each word would be made out of title, an explanation and a list of variants separated by comma (",") and will have it's own page. The dictionary would consist of a list of pages, one for every letter, and on each of these pages there will be the words that start with that letter and a excerpt of the description. Of course, each word will link to it's specific page. There also will be a search form needed that will first look for the words, then for the variants and then the description. This part would sound a little bit like a blog, each word to be like a blog post, each day of the callendar a letter (sorted, of course, by title alphabetically). Would there be a better way to implement this? On the other hand, at some articles body, I want to link the words that are also found in the dictionary to the word in the dictionary (so basically replace all the occurrences of 'IRC' with '<a href="http://mydomain.com/dictionary/i/irc">IRC</a>', where IRC was defined in the dictionary, for example). Is there any filter or hook that would allow me to do that? What would be the best practice?
