What i want is basically a way for many users to update, add or delete parts of a text (the lyric). It will probably only be 'trusted' users that'll be able to do it (users that has added more than x artists/albums/songs). How can i make a CVS-like system, where you can see the changes people made, maybe roll back to an earlier version etc. etc.?

You've just described a wiki - one example of a wiki that is written in PHP and MySQL is http://tavi.sourceforge.net. The code is a little spaghetti-like, but you should be able to look through the database schema to understand how they implement the multi-user text editing, and how to handle the related problems of locking and revision control. --------------------------------------------------------------------- michal migurski- contact info and pgp key:

Thanks, I'll look into it. Also the CVS-in-PHP thing.
