Thanks Johannes I think the Wiki page will be useful to many - Bertrand has also offered the source of his "Bloon" mini-CMS, which looks to be exactly what I need in the meantime.
>>> [EMAIL PROTECTED] 2006/01/23 10:26 PM >>> 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.
