| 2 main ways for user authencation.
1) .htacces, easier to use, if theres only signup/login/member's area
2) PHP, slightly harder, but you can do more with it, eg, only this type of members can post, or change this setting for this member.
As for news posting, I reccomend PHP/MySQL if you want to code from scratch.
Use stuff like:
SELECT * FROM news WHERE catagory='technews' AND hidden='0' |
