okay, i have some questions about php.
i want to be able to update a website easily, can i have a txt file with the info and have the page read it and adjust accordingly. what i would need is the have a list of files available to download and the corresponding file have an easy to read name, like this: "Your project 0301"(link on site), 0301_1fp.dwg"(file to download). and, how would the page formatting be handled? would i just have to setup css to keep it consistent??? i am RTFM, but i have to know if i can do this pretty soon. i havent gotten very far in the book yet.
would it be pretty easy to set this up???

php is perfect, but use mysql to hold the "Details" in a database, buy PHP in 24 hours by Sams Publishing, it would be perfect for learning PHP.

PHPNuke, MyPHPNuke, Postnuke would be ideal for the things you're asking for.

BTW, my page runs on myPHPnuke 1.8.8_7. Check out the content and tell me if you're looking for something similar.

okay, this is what i need. follow this link http://ecsyle.com/lhaa/

if you click on the projects link, you will see a list of projects. i need that list to be updated easily (like from a text file), and to have the link correspond to a password protected folder with a list of files to be downloaded. my goal is the be able to let my client update their page without fucking with the html. they can just modify the projects.txt file, upload it and bam, site updated with the current information. of course they will have to upload the neccesary autocad files as well, but they do not have to fuck with the layout. it would be nice if i could keep a similar layout throughout the site (i have a meeting with them in a few days to discuss the site design, the one up now is just to show them how it will flow). maybe the list you see when you click on projects could be determined by the name of the folders under /projects. then in each folder have a txt file with the <file name, link name> and only have the link name show up?
