A nother motive for this is that i can re-use the modules in later projects.

I know there are tons of frameworks or ready made modular website systems out there.
But i am interested in HOW one can make the own website/project/... modular.
I am redoing a customers website(i made the original one 8 years ago) .

Short explanation on what they have/need to use as an example:
They are a radio Station and have on there Website:
News
Forum
Gallery
Radio-Program/schedule linked to sites of the programs
archive of uploaded old programs

So i thought it would be great to split it up in modules. Now i started googling but did not realy find anything usefull.
So my question to you: has any one got experience or knows a good site(with examples) on this topic??

A nother motive for this is that i can re-use the modules in later projects.

A framework indeed is the way to go. I like to build my own. I guess because I enjoy coding, discovery, and coming up with my own stuff. About 8 years ago I discovered the magic of XSL.
