    I want to build a website for my businss, its only going to be very simple, I have 10 pages in a brochure that i created in Adobe Acrobat professional and i have just saved each page individually as a HTML page,

    What i want to do is create 2 catagories and under each catagory i will have 5 pages in each... eg..

    Toys
    page 1
    page 2
    page 3
    page 4
    page 5
    games
    page6
    page7
    page8
    page9
    page10

    Ok so this would be the layout, i also want to have a contact page and on the main home page just have general text and some pics etc etc..

    What would be the best software to create something like this or how would i do it?

    Ta,

    I'd probably recommend something like CMS Made Simple .. (content management system) but given the nature of your questions it might be a bit advanced to install.

    Given you're just starting as well maybe the free Kompozer would be a better option - http://www.kompozer.net/ dreamweaver has a pretty hefty price tag for just the one site. (Personally not too keen on it either)

    Frontpage might be right up your street if you have no previous experience

    If this is for a business, they you should probably pay someone to do it for you. It's not worth the risk.

    Adobe (Formerly Macromedia) Contribute would be the best tool and less than 100e. It offers an editing window like a word environment and easy to make changes with ability to drag and drop content. However, I think you would need someone to set-up a template page for you to start out with with menu.
