Is it a Wiki product? Even if it isn't I am sure you should be able to edit it without any software that you don't really need. I have never tried to edit a website before but I think you should be able to unless it tells you that you need software. Even though I am not an expert at this I hope it helps:).

It would be very helpful for us to know what website you are writing about. The way you edit a website will depend on the website. I have had websites with three different providers. My first website was with Apple's .Mac service. When I wanted to update a webpage on this service, all I had to do was put the files into the appropriate folder on my iDisk. (This is a directory that appears as a disk icon on the Mac's desktop when a user logs into the service.) With Netscape's free web hosting service, file must be added and removed through a web based interface you access with a web browser. With Road Runner, web pages are added and removed through the use of an ftp program. So, as you can see, there are a number of methods for changing web pages. Without knowing more about the service about which you are asking, it is really impossible for anyone to tell you specifically what you need to do. **************** From response to cmerch19602006's answer: "Anonymous: you may wonder why i don't just ask the ple who gave me the website to maintain-- i may have to in the end, but i'd rather just seem like i know what i'm doing. hahaha." You will look a lot less foolish if you go and ask them how you are to get the update pages onto the site now than you will if you wait a while and waist a significant amount of their time and money.

It sounds to me like you are using a web based editor. Normally, after you edit a page, you need to "publish" it to replace the page that users see when they visit your site. Somewhere within the service you are using to edit the pages there should be a "publish your website" or "publish changes" or something like it. visiting your main address, you will not be able to see the cahnges you have made to pages until you publish the changes. This allows you to leave a partially edited page in your site builder for future work, yet not have a partly finished page on your published site. Edit: Re: Comment "'the service you are using'... i don't think i'm using a 'service' - maybe that's the problem. i just logged in & edited the source code & don't know how to get it 'published'.": Then it sounds like you may have opened the page in your browswer and gone into "View: page source?" if this is the case, you need to save your changes as an HTML page, and contact your web hosting service as to how to upload the page to their server in the correct manner to replace the published page. How, exactly, did you edit the page? Okay, if that is how you edited the page, you need to contact the site hosts or site owners to find out what you need to do from this point. They are the only ones that can help you with that.
