Here's both a cry for help and maybe a possible idea.
When people edit a post/thread in a forum, i always see edit: and some posts i don't, how about having it so that the text or code that has been edited or updated gets automatically highlighted, I'm guessing only two "columns" in each row of the table would be needed, one from the previous text and the second with the new text, this could also work as a backup system, so if something F*cks up in the post theres always the "back up" version. Would be great for admins/mods as well to see EXACTLY what was edited, though I don't know if it would take up unnecessary SQL space
Although with the theory in mind, I haven't got a clue on how to "Compare" two different sets of content and output what has changed.
EDIT: OR
Add an "edited_post" field to the posts table, default NULL, if empty(edited_post) show original_post else show edited post but the "slideit" button for mods to see the original post.
