IMHO
You don't look for a technology (unless you just like technology for the sake of it)
You create a targeted goal or objective (for a need) for the site and then find the best technology to help you meet the goal
Rebuilding the site is not a targeted goal
Rebuilding the site to be what?
Faster, more SE friendly, Easier to navigate, Easier to maintain, DB driven and searchable or updateable from anywhere, Less FP
design time dependent, etc.

| Thanks for the reply Thomas:

| Thomas, my site has been around several years now. You can take a look at
| the site map to get a feel for it. Basically it is simply a small directory.
| I want to focus on a few subjects (pc technology, digital communications,
| and security). I am also using VB.net on other projects.
|
| I tried a rebuild in CSS (w/o tables) and didn't like technology. I looked
| at XML for what it is worth, also Java and JavaScript. Macromedia technology
| is out of the question for me, as I'm already deep into Microsoft software.
|
| I want to rebuild this site. I need a base technology, a methodology, and a
| good toolbox. I probably have most of the resources, but putting them
| together in a coherent package is a problem for me. Any recommendations on
| best practices and management tools as they exist present day? A few good
| links would be helpful.
|
| Thanks Thomas,
|
| D.
