I have the solution for you. Newspro. Its a CGI script. It might not be as advanced as of what most of you guys use , but it gets the job done. It is completely customizable. Its the best that I know of, and its free.

Here is the addy: http://www.amphibianweb.com/newspro/

Have fun

Gurudev, that sounds intriguing! Could be just what we're looking for. Any chance we can have a look at a demo? If it's whatever we're after, I'll commission you.

Incidentally, where are you based. Not in the UK or Germany by chance are you (then I could meet you in person)?

How many artciles are we talking about? Is it ok if they are all uploaded to one folder? I have a site where users can submit articles in text, html, pdf, excel, word, format. When submitting articles, they input the title, description, contact email, etc., The article itself is a seperate file and is uploaded to a folder while the remaining information is in a seperate database and each title points to a specific article and depending upon the type of file it is either opened in browser (text and html) or an application is launched (word, ppt, pdf, excel).

You can manage the title, description, etc., for each article from another database and this also includes a admin panel. If you are interested in this let me know and I will show you a demo and will do the work for a fee as mentioned above. If you need an advanced solution then you can post a project on the site below in my signature and request bids from other programmers.

I'd go with DBMan SQL. A very powerful and scalable solution. The only problem is that it will set you back a few dollars.

database driven site php/mysql price=free (or time taken to learn it if not)
there is probably an easy way to use the above but one way could be to write the article and name it (date).inc (or .php, .html ...) then just use the name (date) to call it to your page with an include. using the date function you could have it so it automaticaly changes to the new article on a certain date and older one would become part of the archive.
not sure about including just a heading thou by this method.

I'm still learning this stuff so I'm sure the pros will have a better way of doing it.

good luck
