You're right! I spent some time I shouldn't have looking at the PHP

something static and simple (but better than the current contents ... ugh!),
and follow that with a more dynamic site in PHP later.
Thanks, all, for your ideas. Back to schoolwork...

Yeah, but CGI is the only way I know how to
generate dynamic pages at the
moment. I'd love to create a nice PHP-based, database-backed site with
cool features like the most recent posts spilling down the front page in
full blog style, but it would take me 2-4 weeks of learning time plus
development time. It could be February or March before this was done. WWW
development just isn't where I've been for the last 7 years.
Actually, it would take days. PHP is just (almost) Perl but even easier to
program in.
