Separating application logic and content from its presentation

Hi,
I am about to develop a simple Content Management system – main purpose
would be posting articles. I am trying to find some ideas/ sample
architecture showing how to separate application logic and content from its
presentation. I would like to use some kind of predefined templates (only
developer can cerate new templates); each template would be composed of
certain controls and in would have some specific layout. The default.aspx
would be created dynamically based on the template specified.
I checked out DotNetNuke and Community Starter Kit
(http://asp.net/Default.aspx?tabindex=8&tabid=47). They are very good, but
too complex for my need.
Any hints would be greatly appreciated,
GregJust create the different modules (news, links, events, etc) and make sure t
o
use styles for all the different visual items. Then its really just a matter
of using different CSS files. You only have to specify which CSS to use then
.
