novice question

i'm a website designer using html/css and i think these great programs on offer here are for me, but i'm not quite sure how or where to implement them.

would it be for a News or Events type of page that changes frequently?
where the client can update the content themselves?
(Note: i use cuschycms for this at the moment)

any other more advanced implementations or examples/uses?
does it need to be integrated with a database?

any links to sample pages would be ideal, if thats allowed?

thanks,
David

You need to know what you are trying to do BEFORE starting use CKEditor.

OK, i think i undertand the use of FCKEditor now,

am i right in thinking that i could create my own cushycms type of sytem?
to offer my clients a way of editing static html pages, like a News or Events page that changes regularly?

altho Adobe are now offering InContext i'd rather offer my own free sytem for clients to make basic edits to their sites.

Re: novice question

There are already too many open source CMS out there. Unless you are a great coder I would forget about creating a new one.
