Could someone point me in the direction of where I might learn how to have an easily updated news function for a web page (kind of like having a mini-blog nested in the page)? Is there a freeware program, or other trick that one could use for something along those lines?

In other words, I want to have a portion of a web page that is easy to update without actually having to go into the page itself and change the actula text of the index page.

    1. You have everything you need in Movable Type to do what you what. Probably the easiest way to do it would be simply to set up a second blog that just spits out bare html, and then including that snippet in a div contained somewhere on your main page using a little php.

    2. I figure that that is an option–but it is for a different site on a different server.

    3. You would probably have to set up a separate program on that server, or create a separate blog on this server, then have a linked RSS feed on the other page (don’t ask me how to do this, I just know that it’s done. I see several blogs that have links to content elsewhere.)

    4. The RSS feed idea may be the easiest.

      And Ron, thanks for your tips as well. I will look into them.

    5. Steven,

      If you want some help with that just drop me an email. Always happy to help out a fellow Alabamian even though I live in Cleveland now.
