Thanks Gav.

I suppose the main thing is to be able to view the pages after editing so thank you for the WAMP link - am going to download that now.

The site is designed already - I just mainly have to make changes to text and images.

The CodeIgniter looks of interest - am going to try my hand at that.

I came into front end web design by accident and its time I tackled something meaty!

Thanks for your help.
