easy edit content management

[webarch]

I am trying to create a web site with an easily editable content management system for a client. Once I post the web site the client wants to be able to make simple changes to the content himself. He does want to alter the layout or anything only change content in specifically assigned areas. Does anyone have any solutions to an issue like this? I am somewhat new to web development and would love to find a way to make this work.

This is exactly what I am after too. I built a site (my first one and for free) at
www.tirc.ie
The client wants to update the content themselves. I am messing around with wordpress at the moment but to be honest getting wordpress to look exactly like the site I built is beyond me. Anyone got any help/suggestions
????
