FreeBSD is one of the trillion flavors of UNIX.

You can use any web design program you like. I am using Macromedia Dreamweaver MX, which I really like. Microsoft FrontPage is another popular choice. There are many others.

Hello!

Most likely what you are wanting is some kind of Content Management System. Where you have a site that you can log into, and make changes to existing pages and save them, etc.

That's possible, but not DIRECTLY supported by PowWeb. You'll need to find a CMS program online somewhere (like NukePHP or phpWebsite) and install it on your site.

If you have specific questions about this, try asking them in the PHP or CGI forum. :) Users there can try and help out. Or if there is anything I could do to help, please feel free to ask here.

Good luck!
