Subject: Web CMS without a DB?
I am webmaster for a school band web site. It is a hand-crafted piece of
beauty I inherited from the previous volunteer webmaster. It uses HTML
with a few server side java scrips for header and footer stuff. It looks
good but, after almost a year of doing maintainance, I am tired of doing
HTML by hand for every little change.

The site is hosted on donated server space and donated bandwidth. The
donated account they provided does not allow the site to use a DB. That
would require the next expensive hosting package. I'd rather not ask
them to donate more value if I can help it. Unfortunately it is a
Windows host server too so even if they gave us a database, I wouldn't
know what CMS to use on a Windows web server.

Is there a "CMS" system that will allow me to add new articles, post
pictures, in short, do basic site updates without adding to the services
of the web server? I envision some application or "CMS" running on my
local machine that generates HTML to then upload to the server.

I have not found such a thing but maybe one of you know of one.
