Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility Hi Kyle Reference the earlier post I made, i always wondered how the pages were updated throughout the day, and after checking the source code, I saw it was done through CMS. Never heard of CMS it until you brought it into a discussion on this forum. thanks. ---------------------------------------- Tomorrow never comes, make the most of today |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility @lsw yeah you done your job alright  besidesit seems that accessibility often comes with more accessible code - more readable therefore easy changable.I will wait for this accessible shopping cart you promised to find. In reality all even small businesses now want to have CMS like web sites with shopping cart. So im looking for some solution - not that expensive for such combination in order to buy for example unlimited license and later resell. Cheers ---------------------------------------- My blog |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility I know of another accessible shopping cart being built by Rich peddley, one of the names behind QnECMS and a Accessibility developer. But it is in Beta testing and no idea on the price. Right now it is being looked at by some members of GAWDS. No idea when it will be released. |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility Mambo - Grrrr  Ok, I don't have a choice. They want Mambo they get Mambo. But my Opinion of it hit rock bottom. If you do not like Lemming sites, those that look like the rest and you want it easy, then Mambo may bo good for you. But f you have a finished site you want to keep.... go somewhere else. Now I created my Template fro my original design, you can tell what the site is to be.. but that is it. I have spent two hours trying to find things... you are on your own trying to track elements down. My main nav is partly as it should but some other CSS is interfiering, I do not know if it is inline cause I can find the bloody tempate or whatever for it! When look in my source code, the defaul links as I have yet to make the menu bar, each LI has the same class tacked on! 5 links then 5 x class="whatever"! o maybe they have some good developers there, but they are missing the point in CSS. I have no idea what PHP code calls up what as nothing is well commented.... it is HTML 4.0 but my template is XHTML Tag Soup. Al the things it writes in are in tables when my design is tables free! I am at a loss as to what to do... Go through every line of code in every folder and make changes and break the code? Spend hours looking for links to some other CSS I can't even find? Change my CSS to patch all the silly classes they use... assuming I even find them all...  I am about just to take a standard template and make it blue and call it a day, it is not worth the Ulcer just to have a unaccessible mismash of mabo junk and what is left of a once accessible site. I for one will refuse all further customers who wish Mambo unless they pay me a very impressive sum. If you see Mambo - run for your life. |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility seems if your client 've chosen Mambo then you have no other choice then - just use what you got there. Call it blue mambo. And thanks for another tip on accessible cms. Cheers ---------------------------------------- My blog |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility I may just refuse, I delivered a accessible tables free, javascript free, CSS-p site that was error free and Valdiated. If they want to ruin it with Mambo it is their problem. |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility precisely. This mambo jam will have no signature of yours so all the blame will go to their chosen CMS. ---------------------------------------- My blog |

Re: CMS (Content Management System) : Accessibility ehm, now its my turn on Mambo . As i have no experience with cms at all i've decided to install it (it happens to be mambo because i found a very good tutorial for very mambo beginners) and try on all those goodies cms has. And for a time being i got stuck on finding some decent template ( css based tabless centered ) that i could upload stright away. Could anybody suggest some? Thanx. ---------------------------------------- My blog |
