Greetigns everyone -
I am new to the idea using CMS with a website, so I just a few quick questions.
I have started the website: http://www.tothepointandback.com, and I am using FrontPage as my HTML editor.
Someone told me about using a CMS on my site, however, I've just started reading about it. Well, I've known what it is for a while, but this is my first attempt at research.
I do not know all of the SQL information however I am running on a Window's based server if that helps.
Here is my question: Like I had mentioned before I a designed my own site in FrontPage and it is getting frustrating getting keeping everthing organized all of the pages flowing smoothly. Sometimes the margins get off and it messes the index page up or what not. Would it be hard for a novice like me to setup a CMS system with my allready desgined templates?
Or is this just wishful thinking?
I do not write any code so I would need something pretty simple such as the software, I believe, that is offered on this site.
If anyone could assist with some advice, it would be most appreciated.
Regards,
Joel

Re: CMS for a site in FrontPage
if you have valid xhtml / css layout using it in cmsms is as easy as
1) copy paste html to new template
2) copy paste css to new css
3) assign css to template
4) in template replace all content with {content} tag
5) in template replace menu with {menu} tag
and thats it
here is a screencast of doing above to oswd layout
