    I am creating a website without a cms, I like coding and don't want to take the fun out by using a cms tongue.gif

    Anyway, if I am wanting to change templates it would be a pain because if its a different format i would have to change EVERY page. So without using a cms what would I use to be able to switch templates at ease? I looked up template engines but I don't think thats what I need.

    I imagine you can just point it to a different style sheet.

    Anyway, you should not feel like using a CMS means you don't get to write your own code. In fact using a CMS, like Wordpress, or any other, you still can create your own layouts. I write plenty of code (html, php, css, javascript) when using a CMS. It is very helpful that the CMS takes care of the overall structure of things and I can focus on making the site do what I want. It is also very helpful if you are making a site for a client, who can then update their own content easily. You should look into using a CMS a bit further.
