Hi Joe,

   I hope you can add some comments or input on the following solution I came up with on the content approval.

  For those who want to implement it , the way I did it was straight forward and simple.

  on my HtmlEdit.aspx.cs (code behind) , under btnUpdate_Click method, I overloaded the Save(bool isAdmin) method to accept a bool whether the user is an admin using webuser.isadmin() method. If this is true, and under Save() where it has "if (this.itemID > 0)" I did a condition again if the user is admin then it returns Update() else it CreatesTempHtmlContent, which is basically the same as create only on a duplicate table called mp_TempHtmlContent. Then I use the same SP and kinda tweaked it to use the latter table.  Once this is all done, I send an email notification to the Admin of the site with a link to virtual page called Content-Review.aspx and provide a new control called ContentReview.ascx that lays out (in table) all the pending status (content of the table mp_TempHtmlContent) and provide a link to a new page that displays the modified content. The page that receives the link has button event that says 'approved' then after, the mp_TempHtmlContent will transfer all the data to mp_HtmlContent, which is the original table if you had created a new content for the page.

  Well I hope this gives an idea to those who are into same path. If you have any comments I'd love to hear it so I can optimize this logic.

Thanks Joe, I appreciate the feedback, now that you mentioned it I will probably just go with your suggestion for manageability and maintenance purposes. I will share my new created solutions to your forum.
