Ahhhh! So I've decided for now to use popup windows for editing purposes. Each section of the praising and praying part of the website will have "Edit this Section" buttons. Clicking on said buttons will popup an editor window (WYSIWYG) with the contents of that section ready for editing. Saving from that popup window will close it, update the section's contents in the database (using <a href="http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/AJAX" title="AJAX" rel="nofollow">AJAX</a>) and update the mainpage with the new content, realtime. What do you think of this solution? Popups! Ahhhh!
