If there are any knowledgeable people here on the above topic, I would greatly appreciate your input on this problem I have.
I am trying to set up a little website that has a layout that will display the usual news system, latest 10 news and any related images for that article.
Although this can be done manually, I really want to take a step AWAY from that way of creating a website. All my previous incarnations on the web have all failed due to the fact that it ( in the end ) became too cumbersome to keep doing things manually.
Re-doing the page might be worthwhile when you are more than 1 person, but this is becoming a real headache for me.
Any ideas? I have looked at some php sites, trying to find some kind of solution ( free news packages come to mind ) but they all are plagued by lousy documentation and virtually no customization available.
I have a proper host that supports php and mysql. I even have a nifty interface for my database so that I can easily add/remove tables and add entries left and right.
So, harken unto my words and come forth and spread the light of enlightenment upon my weary head lest I fall into the ravine of hopelessness.
Help?
