Translation: You want a password-protected form, which the band members can access, which overwrites (updates) a central (or individual) chunk of text.
This text is placed inside a HTML page (dynamic, whatever, doesn't matter) at run time, and is visible each time the page is hit, until someone else in the band overwrites it. This can be achieved quite easily, but may not be an ideal "first go" at PHP. In simple terms, you want: - a form - validation of that form (user, password, content validity, minor security checks) - overwrite a text file or MySQL database field with the new text - include that text in your home page (or whatever).
