Comment / Reply function

Hi there, I am trying to add a comment functionality to my PHP webapp that includes a reply possibility on each comment. Like on digg for example. I am new to AJAX, but would like to take this oportunity and to jump into cold water with that task now. I am asking this question here in the PHP forum, as I was thinking to do a for loop to include a form underneath each comment, but now it sounds rediculous to me. There must be a smarter way to do this. My goal is to use JQuery to show and hide a dialog box which contains the form to reply on the comments. Basicaly I managed to do this, but now I have a general understanding problem. Let's say there are 100 comments there and I want to have reply possiblity for each of them. Do I have to integrate the same code underneath each one? I would rather like to have a box in that is used for everyone of them. I believe this is somehow done with divs, but I do not know how. Here is my code: <html> <head> <script src="/app_global/jquery-1.2.1.pack.js" type="text/javascript"></script>

    <script type="text/javascript">

$(document).ready(function() { $('#slickbox').hide(); $('a#reply').click(function() { $('#slickbox').toggle('slow'); return false; }); });

    </script>

</head> <body> <a href="#" id="reply">Reply</a> <div id="slickbox"><p>Space for reply box</div> <p> next comment </body> </html> I would like to place a complex reply form into the id=slickbox, but here is where the problems starts. If I do this for all 100 comments the code will be way to much to load. Even if it is easy to do with PHP. There must be a smarter way to achieve this. Thank you for any help on this. I am pretty much stuck here. Best regards, Merlin
