Hi Derek,

I did something like that, but it think it is still more 'simple' than
you describe:

- no database connection, all you do is edit XHTML fragments which are
stored as flat XML files in a directory
- no title, no section for a page, just the (unique) filename

It is based on the freeware cross-browser text editor "RTE"
(http://www.kevinroth.com/rte/demo.htm), stripped down to the most
essential functions. Cross-Browser means moz/IE at the moment, since the
others don't support design mode. I use cocoon to "clean" the content
through some additional stylesheets which only let the most basic markup
come through (p,div,a,img,ul/ol/li but no tables/iframes/font etc.)

Additionally, it has an image pool where you can upload images which can
be used in the editor afterwards. That one relies on ImageMagick for
unknown formats though (still works on windows + linux)

If you or someone else is interested in this, I think I can spare the
time this week to put up a wiki page.

Regards,
Johannes
