cidr/IP address type(Tom Helbekkmo)It looks like the code I sent you is working fine -- if you want to
integrate it into the backend, I'd say go ahead. Also, if you at the
same time could make notes explaining how this is done, that would
make it possible for the rest of us to do such things ourselves...
It is very hard to do this. If you look at how I integrated this type,
you can see what is involved. There are things pointing everywhere, so
it is really hard to describe without understanding all the tables and
their interaction.
