     If you are a web developer, you know how annoying it may be when you have to go through all the difficult stages of updating the website - change the local pages, connect to the server, upload and verify them - and all that in most cases to correct a typo, a broken link or change the wording under the boss's personal details. Imagine a perfect world where you or your customers could carry out those minor yet important updates much more easily. Now come back to reality and use Web Update Builder for that very purpose.
     Web Update Builder is a tool that lets you create stand-alone applications that can be used by anyone in charge of a website to apply minor changes to it. What you as a developer have to do is prepare HTML pages for the tool: insert special WUB tags either manually or with aid of a Macromedia Dreamweaver plug-in. Then you upload the pages (just once), run the tool and enter the website details, and voila - the application is ready for use. The customer will see editable boxes where text is surrounded with WUB tags, and the rest of the page will be kept unchanged.
     The tool allows one to perform the simplest operations with plain text and links, yet that is more than enough for minor updates. Try this tool today and see that for yourself.
