CMS Made Simple Forums

Hi!

I need something for a rather simple task. I'm building a website for a foundation (charity) and I'm building the website with HTML and CSS. The text of each page is placed inside just one cell of a certain table. The rest is all for layout.

Is it possible to assign CMSMS for the task of changing the text in that cell in a graphical way, thus users with no knowledge of HTML and CSS can edit the text by just loggin in and editing with a WYSIWYG-editor?

This is not the site but a extremely simple version of it but it shows how the site will be:

Yeah, CMS can do this, no problems.

My question is why would you want to use a table for layout when everything is already setup to use CSS and XHTML ?

Hi!

What would you otherwise suggest to use for design?
Tables are for positioning, CSS for how text is displayed in my website...

Is CMSMS easy to setup for the task I mentioned?
Can CMSMS read the HTMLpages or do these pages have to be entered as templates like in Joomla?

That layout is just like the default template Left simple navigation + 1 column, just change the header and style the rest to your desired preferences...

This statement has not be true since 1998.
You can and should use CSS for all layout, fonts, and styles. Tables should be for data grids only in my opinion.

But thats not a CMSms thing, just a general web thing.

Go with what you are comfortable with. or check out some CSS books that discuss layout. CSS layout techniques have been pretty industry standard since 2004 i'd guess.
