I realize that I still have to find the variables in code, but my reasoning was that someone without any knowledge of HTML was going to be updating this specific page on a weekly basis and I was trying to do it in a manner in which they could easily find all of the data in one location within the file without having to download a wysiwyg editor. Using javascript variables allows them to avoid searching through the code for each table cell so they can quickly make simple changes. I was trying not to include more info than was needed, so I left this out and so I can see how excluding this bit of info would lead to confusion about not using a database. Thanks so much for all of your help. I chose to use Ooble's suggestion and it worked exactly as I was hoping.
