Hello.

I came across the site: www.dpworld.ro

I like how neat it looks. I was wondering what type of CMS they used to design it. The links to the other pages on the site come in the form of: http://www.dpworld.ro/main_pages.php?id=29 (the "id=" number changes for each page on the site) and I belive there's a MySQL database required to operate such a CMS.

Any idea?

Thanks.

It looks like a custom built site that uses a simple php templating system. The url strings simply display content that's related to the number, the data could be stored in a database or plain htmnl file - who knows!

If you find out I'd stay away from it. Too much use of tables for layout ;)

Works differently in IE than in Firefox too, though it might be me...I'm kind of tired lol

A search for a significant part of the URL usually gives results, and indeed:

http://www.google.nl/search?hl=nl&q=%22main_pages.php%3Fid%3D%22&btnG=Google+zoeken&meta=

Only their site is found, so it must be custom made.

Hello.

There's another site I found (in Arabic) that use the same technique in arranging content. So it should be a CMS system (although maybe not widely known).

Looks like a custom-made. Also without much content, it is difficult to comment on the architecture. It looks like as if it is still in its early development stage.

Google Netherlands did not show that result for me.. :eek:

agree with Bluddreamer, just want to add
1. 95% of cms use "id=" strings, if they have any1 how can make sef url-s (mean mod-rewrite)
2. IMHO it's a not so much advanced cms, which can be
a) custom built
b) modification of any standart script

at the last i think it's custome built cms as search and gallery are integrated to this cms (look at the code and design, and u'll understand what i mean)

btw, why it's so important for you ? :-)

Hi.

It's really not that important :) I was just wondering what CMS webmasters use besides the famous CMSs.

I think it is a hybrid site - pure html with php and flash header :) it uses MySQL database I suppose :)

There are several open CMS systems out there but I did build one a couple years ago. It was PHP with a MySQL backend. It is probably way outdated now since I don't maintain it but it is still out there on the web - http://www.fpu-tn.com is the site. Very simple structure and a complete non-programmer can update data - had numerous logins for many different users.
