Thank you Nile,
but there is not it, let's say you have a website designed by me, and is about cooking and you have thisweekly new recipes page, and you are not a savy mom, and you want these recipes changed every week with a new recipe, BUT you can not affort to pay me to update the recipe page and YOU MOM wants to do it.
So how do I offer that possiblity? What is that i need to have or do to make that possible?

Is like offering a server site studio kind of thing, see ..:o

The easiest way might be to use PHP with a MySQL database.

You would have to create a form (in regular HTML) which would submit and save its info into a MySQL database. On the frontend pages then, you would have to query the database with PHP and output the results.

This should get you started: http://www.php-mysql-tutorial.com/

Although, the WordPress idea isn't a bad one if you port your design into a WordPress theme. Each new recipe (as in your example) would simply be a new blog post. This will give you the added benefit of archiving and categorization but it might be overkill (it would depend on the site).

I've used WordPress (and also phpBB) as a basis for several CMS-type applications and it works well. It had more functionality than my skill set would allow be to give my clients and it's fairly easy to integrate into existing designs.

Wordpress is the best for this :)

easy for not-so-web freaks and can be customized as you like !

good luck!

Adobe Contribute could be useful if you wanted to stay with a static site.

hope this helps
