You said no coding or databases (which is the really cool, expandable as needed part . . . )

I want to develop a site with all HTML pages (no databases, PHP, ASP), but have at least one or two pages with text that the client can modify?

Server side includes.

.....
<body>
<pre>
<!--#include virtual="/path-to/text-file.txt" -->
</pre>
</body>

Save as .shtml, run on 'Nix. Doesn't get much more simple.

I'd have someone script it, a simple one-page CMS can be handled by a single script less than 500-1000 lines. IMO O.S. CMS systems are just too huge and bloated for most small client needs, which is probably one of the reasons they are so often hacked.

Sounds like a day, maybe two day, project. :-)
