Ron, I don't use an editor. I build the pages in my wp, then copy and paste them up, then fine tune them (straighten up the columns, make sure the lines don't run too long, etc.). If I do run across something pertaining to that info, I add it to the page and change the date. For instance, on my Kiowa Co. Cattle trails page that I have had up for 3/4 years, I ran across some links to more info on Doan's Crossing. I added these links, then changed the date. ANother page, i.e., About the last Kiowa Sundance, is a brochure written by a Kiowa elder, that will never be updated, as he knew more about the Sundance than I do. That's what I meant by, couldn't the reader tell if it was an un-updatable page?
