I had not heard of Contribute but from what I see searching on it, it looks to me like a desktop application sort of like Dreamweaver... ? regarding costs: There are plenty of free/open source CMS out there (eg xoops, drupal, etc) and for basic stuff a lot of them are pretty easy to set up so long as the web host has the required software installed (php, mysql, etc) ******************************************************************* List Guidelines: http://webstandardsgroup.org/mail/guidelines.cfm Unsubscribe: http://webstandardsgroup.org/join/unsubscribe.cfm Help: [EMAIL PROTECTED] *******************************************************************
