I have been asked to make a site for a user where he can add a different article to the web page every day so I’m trying to figure out how this can be done. In other words I need to set it up where he can add the title on his site to the article that’s on example.com/article and a user on his site clicks the articles title and it takes the user to example.com/article I can do it with php no doubt but which I know about very little as I’m just starting to get to know it, XML? Javascript which I’d rather not use for this application or none of the above? I’m all ears. I imagine no matter which way I go I’ll need to make a log-in page for him. I hope I worded it well enough so as not to confuse anybody.
No worries. Defiantly sounds like WP is the way to go, then. 
Thanks for the reply ralph.m. I have WordPress on my computer. I guess I couldn’t see the obvious because I was thinking too hard. Thanks again for pointing me in the right direction.
What you are looking for is a content management system (CMS). There are lots out there, but you can just install them, style them and the rest is done for you. For standard articles/blog posts that you are describing, WordPress is a good option.
