If anyone has any ideas I would really appreciate it. I am having my site completely re-written from scratch.... I was wondering if there was some type of script that would intergrate the news onto the front page of another non-vb home page like index.php or a non-php page like index.html... I dont want to use a content management system,

Does anyone know of such a thing?
