Off the top of my head, I'm thinking of a CMS added to the site and then 'tweaked' just for this purpose. One good way to do this is to use Wordpress. Once its uploaded and installed, you can customize it easily with PHP and CSS. It has a built in editor and a very easy way to upload pics, or files without using ftp.

Other than building from the ground up - a pretty big job for something like this - this is what I would do. I don't know if you've ever used Wordpress, but a lot of people build entire web sites with it. I think CMS is the way to go these days.

I hope this helps.

Okay... here's a question for all the web designers out there.
I have a site (sidelong look at Hal) and they want to be able to put a banner on the site that can be updated as needed for bad weather (office closing for instance), but the guy doesn't want to learn simple html *or* anything to do with FTP'ing to the site. *sigh* I know this is something that should... could... be done with PHP... but I'm at a loss as to where to start. I *know* PHP, but just can't figure out how this can be done without ftp'ing to the actual site.
 Anyone have any suggestions?
 Thanks,

Tina
