need a way for users to update page content

I put a site up for a non profit organization, and on it there is several pages where the information can be changing on an almost daily basis. The way the site is designed the info is in a 600px X 750px div box. There is one or two users that would be updating info on some of the pages. I was originally thinking of just having the users create a jpeg to fit the div box and do up a simple command line ftp script that would log them in and replace the existing image on the site, but that is rather limiting.

What I would like is to have a password protected form they could go to, where they could enter in text and perhaps images, format etc. and preview their changes, then submit.

I do this on one other site, where I have som php code bring up a window that prompts for a password then the user can enter in plain text, but it is not the most user friendly as you need to use html tags for formatting and is not wysiwyg for the user.

I am not sure which method (php, javascript, etc) is the best way to do this, and I am not a coder so I would need some ready made scripts.

Any ideas anyone?

thanks in advance!

Looks like you could use a content managing system. xD For a list of them, go here and scroll down to PHP (I assume you want php hence you brought php up in your post).

thanks - a full blown CMS wasn't really what I had in mind for now, although for the long run I do think I'd be better off designing these sites in something like joomla etc..

I was just wondering if there was some simple add on that would give a user a wysiwyg front end for editing text content on a page or two.

maybe you could make an rss box?
