Anyone know of some general HTML that would allow someone to put a blog on a generic website? With daily entires and everything? I'd like to try and make a non-xanga site...

ive heard of one called b2 and moveable type?
well i think you needa google about moveable type
but [2]nekked made 2 awesome tutorials on b2

tutorial one tutorial 2

You'd need a server that hosts PHP/mySQL/CGI scripts. If not, you're S.O.L. Just make a div and write your entries in there and set up a chatterbox or something so people can leave comments.

Greymatter: http://www.noahgrey.com/greysoft/

actually one is installing it and one is editing the templates for it, there diffrent...

try using cutenews if you don't want to use cgi. It's very easy, it's entirely made of php, so you can change template.

Here one of my page using cutenews.

i use b2 and wordpress. i used to greymatter but it's glitchy... if u dont have php or cgi support, you can blog manually and use haloscan for commenting.

^ wow, nekked is so awesome at these things
