    Default Client web site updating

    Hi

    I have a client who wishes to have daily menu shown on his web site. Hence
    each day there will
    be a different menu. He wants to upload it himself via a browser interface.

    Silly question I suppose but I do not wish him to have access to the
    complete site just one small DIV

    Is this what Contribute does? or is there something better?

    thanks

    Ian

    Default Re: Client web site updating

    You could solve this with a php include or an iframe.

    In case of a php include you create a page called inc.menu.php and provide
    your user with a bookmark to that page in Contribute. You call the file into
    the main page/template like this: <?php include("inc.menu.php"); ?> (note that
    your pages have the extension .php instead of .html.

    In cas of an iframe, you create a html page with the menu and you provide your
    user with a bookmark to that file in Contribute. You calle the file into the
    main page/template like this: <iframe src="menu.html" name="menu"
    scrolling="auto" frameborder="no" align="left" height = "150px" width = "200px">
    </iframe>
