Topic: What to use for "dynamic" content?

[Bill Talcott]

A while back, I found a service that let you put a snippet of code into a webpage. This code referenced the service and displayed your HTML. You could email changes to the code to the service, and your page would be updated.

I would like to do something similar with our SME. It doesn't have to be anything fancy. Basically I'd just like to create a skeleton page on the site, and have it access a separate file to show current employment openings. The separate file would be in another i-bay (preferably private) accessable to the HR people, for easy non-HTML updating. I think the email update syntax would be too confusing, so I don't even want that. I've looked at PHP-Nuke and Movable Type a bit, but they both seem like overkill for my simple little task. I've currently got the listings in a separate file using an iframe, but I'd prefer a smooth-looking PHP setup or something.

Anyone got any suggestions on where to start with this?

search the net for PHP & MySql.

PHP is a kinda add-on for HTML and allows you to use dynamic content. The content can even come from a db like mysql....

Well, I did some reading on server side includes, and made it work with a symlink to the ibay file. Works great now, and all they have to do is put a "

" between paragraphs in the text file.
