Hi All

I've recently been asked to design a website for a friend but he wants to update it himself - text and pictures - without having to muck about with html or dreamweaver or frontpage. I've read about self administration websites where users can log in and do the necessary but I've no idea how to set one up for him. He also wants a members area where his clients can log in and view the progress of their application. Can anyone help with this please. I have a basic understanding of website design etc having done a few in the past, but nothing like this.

Many thanks.
