What you need is a Content Management System (CMS). e107 is an example of one of these. _________________ Andy (AbyssUnderground) (previously The Inquisitor)

Or Mambo, Joomla, WordPress, etc...I have all three on my Abyss X2 Server so I can experiment with the new versions of each. Abyss seems to handle all of them. |

This is entirely dependent on what type of CMS you use. They are all coded differently.
However, I have ported html templates to e107, WordPress, and RunCMS in the past
with minimal ease. Some are harder, like Joomla and *Nuke.
After picking a CMS, it's best to find documentation and tutorials related to its theme creation. |

Joomla's a good choice. I use it on 4 of my sites.
Once you get past the slight learning curve you can do practically anything with it. |

With Joomla and Mambo, graphics like header banners are located in the template file directory. |
