    Website Updating

    I was updating a website the other day, and I found myself trawling through lines of HTML to reach the main body text.

    I thought how much easier it would be to put some tags in the code where the body text should go, then use some kind of program to download the text from the area, then allow you to change it without going near the code.

    Like using ASP to embed a text file, but without needed to know ASP or install servers and stuff.

    Ideas?

    You could use an Include file for the body of the text, then all you'd have to change is that file when you wanted to make updates.

    Building on what damonous said, to edit and replace that include file, you can use the inet control to FTP it to the server.
