I work in an office that has various sub-companies below it.

We have roughly 5 websites (fluctuates depending on what events are on!).

Currently I take care of pretty much all the web based stuff and I'm slowly becoming comfortable at coding using Dreamweaver in its code view.

However some of the other staff have expressed interest in maintaining the content on the websites themselves which currently would be difficult as we only have one license for Dreamweaver, and I know they wouldn't have a clue of what to do if the site was presented to them in code.

I'm hoping to find a simple enough web-editor that doesn't cost $700 a pop so that if they wanted to make minor changes (update contact details, add some new information to an already established page, etc) they could open it up and make the corrections without having to wait for me to be free to do a simple task for them.

I'm sure that I can teach them how the FTP side of things work and just use FileZilla or something similar for that part, but I'm unsure of what software I could use to show them how to edit content.

Does anyone have any suggestions?

Have you thought of using a Content Management System for this? I'm currently playing around with CMS from Scratch which Delusion suggested to me in another thread, it's free to download and seems quite simple to set up (although I haven't gone through the whole process of it yet). There are of course lots of other choices in CMS as well.
