Carrying on my running ad for twiki, I'll point out that twiki
supports HTML markup and javascript out of the box.  On the "Twki Text
Formatting" popup which is linked from every edit page, there's a link
visible without any scrolling which says "using HTML" and which links
to the part of the document which explains any caveats to using HTML
formatting (basically just watch out for blank lines and try to
conform to XHTML-1.0 transitional).  So, run twiki and don't scare
anyone off - except for the people who hate everything regardless. ;)
