PHP is a very elegant and powerful scripting language that could do this for 
you. I have a number of client editable pages on servers from Germany to 
Australia using scripts I've written myself, but there are existing scripts 
you could probably adapt without too much trouble and I'm sure some on this 
list could point you in the right direction. www.php.net and 
www.phpbuilder.com would be good places to start.

PHP will interface with numerous databases, and flat files (plain text, xml, 
csv) if databases are not available. It's also a very nice language to learn.

Good luck,
KathyW.
