    depends on the size/complexity of the site and what language you want it in.

    In PHP (which seems to be a fair bet nowadays)...

    Blog Platforms that might do what you need for a small client/simple site:
    WordPress (I'm looking at using this for a small client along with the Static HomePage plugin)
    Textpattern
    Moveable Type

    Full-on Site CMS:
    Drupal
    Joomla
    PHPNuke/PostNuke
    PHPwcms
    Mooflex (as yet unreleased)

    I was hopping to find one that would just be used as a backend and would provide some php includes to place on the site where i want it to be shown and that the text could be edited in a blog style but i dont want a blog or anything i'll have to style. Just sometihng to llace text and maybe images and alow soemone with little wbe noledge to edit the text. I think Macromedia has sometihng like that i odnt recall the name but cant i do that with a cms or blog ?

    The Macromedia CMS is called Contribute.

    Contribute isn't a CMS in itself. It's just like a version of dreamweaver that only edits an existing site and respects the dreamweaver "you can only edit section {x}" tags.

    Snippetmaster looks interesting. I may use that in the future.

    Just to follow up on my own message, CMSmadesimple allows you to use an existing web page or pages as templates where you drop their content tag into the area you need to fill with content. You can also define your own CMSmadesimple tags using PHP.

    I tried Snippetmaster. Do not go near it if you want your pages to validate. Snippetmaster relies on using a non-existing tag: <snippet></snippet>. All the other code it writes is not XHTML 1.0/1.1 valid - it's all uppercase.

    Hi Sebastien

    You've sorted out your problem now, but the other day I stumbled on this great looking CMS - WebYep by Objective Development Software. Looks like just the ticket...

    You may want to look at CMS from Scratch. It's new, but I tried it and I think it's kind of cool.
