1.	Solve : Looking for software for website?
Answer» HELLO, I want to build a site that OFFERS recipes to download and members could up load as well. What would the best software be for that? KZ1No recommendation on the software; someone else will probably make a suggestion. But, regarding download and upload, you could put recipes in PDF FORMAT. Then, visitors could save the PDF to their hard drive. Or, they could simply copy and paste into Word or whatever. Uploading recipes is going to be more complicated. What about installing a forum in your website? Then visitors could post their recipes in the forum. Many web hosting services offer forum, i.e. message board, installation at no additional cost. to make the website you could use dreamweaver or frontpage but they cost money i would suggest getting a GOOD book on web DESIGN and learning and creating it by hand. maybe javascript would help with the uploading.Ah, I just discovered a site that does just what I mentioned; they have a forum and encourage posting recipes there. See http://members.allrecipes.com/Community/good maybe they can learn from thatThank you all for the responses. I'll check out the options you each mentioned. Thanks again KZ1Probably forum software is the way to go. You would need a web host that supports a language such as PHP or Perl. My preference would be PHP. You could then install Simple Machines Forum and customise it to your heart's content.
