Hello PHP list

First allow me to apologize if this is the wrong place for this and direct me to the proper place. (be nice now!)

I know nothing about PHP and have read at least 100 faqs and googled for hours. I don't even know some of the basics.

Allow me to explain. I am the webmaster for a small web site for a Florida car club. The members have been asking if they could post info about events, communicate community wide, maybe post their own Classified ads, etc,

I would like to comply with their wishes for an email/blog kind of thing
but don't have the foggiest notion where to begin. The googling/faq's don't help me a bit and appears to be pretty complicated. I don't even know the basics. I really have no desire to go into a steep learning curve to accomplish what should be a pretty simple thing. I need simple and easy.

I have composed in straight html (not that much,but enough) and with several GUI's. (all open source Linux based) I compose on my system and then simply upload to the site with FTP. I have found a few PHP packages but are not sure what they do. They require PHP, MySQL or Postgres, and Apache. Do I really need to install Apache? (The site is hosted by a commercial remote ISP as a courtesy/good will thing and I think they support PHP but do not wish to place any burden on them to support the site) Do I really need a data base?

Please be patient and point the old guy in the right direction.

Thanks,
Bob S.
