Probably more appropriate for the WSG CMS list, but short answer is
yes,
a CMS would definitely address this issue. Other options include Adobe
Contribute.

In short yes it would probably be best...
I had the same problem with a client and so I gave him the website in
WordPress, so now I only do major style/ structure changes and he
handles the content changes himself

Regardless of whether it's valid or not, hardly any mainstream

So even once you have it validating, practically nobody will be

Lucien.
I don't think Firefox does. And if I recall correctly (call me on
it if
I am wrong) text-shadow was included in the CSS 2 specs, but it was
dropped due to lack of support.
Also, Dean, it is possible to link to a CSS validation with advanced
options. Just copy and paste the entire URL out of the address bar
when
you validate it. For example:
http://jigsaw.w3.org/css-validator/validator?uri=http%3A%2F%
2Fwww.ohlman.com%2Fstyle.css&warning=1&profile=css3&usermedium=all
You can see that the profile option is equal to css3 in the above URL.

Hi all,
My apologies. I was just re-reading my own posts to this site and had
forgotten that I had already asked this question, at least in part.
I would still appreciate knowing how others would handle this
situation.

Hi all,
I am trying to find a solution to a nagging problem. Most of my
client's
sites are not very dynamic and I update them as the client requires.
Because the updates are very infrequent, I have not been charging
very much
for this ongoing support. However, I have a new client who wants to
maintain her own site (one I designed for her). She is pretty
good on the
computer, but doesn't really know her way around HTML or CSS. I am
agonizing over how to "pass the torch" over to her. The site is not
extremely complex, but is more than a little task for someone who
does not
design web sites.
I am wondering for advice on this situation and I am also
wondering how
others handle ongoing updates after the initial design has been
implemented.
I am also wondering if a CMS system would, in any way, be a
solution to a
situation like this.
Thanks.
