Can anyone recognise this CMS script?
Hi,
One of my client hired someone to do a CMS system, and found out they just took an open source script and claimed it was their work. My client rather pay the original coders instead of this guy, so there will not be copy right issues in the future.
Can anyone recognise this script?
Hope I posted on the right forum.

If it is open source, i don't believe there would be a copyright issue regarding your client in the first place. Just tell him not to pay the one who 'claimed' he designed it.

If it's open source, anyone can use it, but they can't claim it to be their own.
The script looks like it's custom made, though the WYSIWYG editor could be from http://sourceforge.net/projects/fckeditor/ .

Well, he was requested to do a small mod, but couldn't and that is when he admitted that he just took an opensource script and customised the looks.

I could swear this software looks a lot like PageEdit but I could be wrong. It's open source but costs like 60 or 70 bucks.
