Hi, I would recommend you Typo3. It's published under the GNU Public License and is based on PHP and MySQL.
It fits you needs concerning the features and publishing to static pages is possible as well but the static pages have to be on the same Server than the Typo3-System. <slightly OT> Ther's a smart trick in Typo3 for mixing static with dynamic pages. Besides the feature to use the apache mod_rewrite for translating links like "introduction.23.0.html" to "index.php?id=23&type=0" it can publish to static pages which are named exactly like the names which mod_rewrite can translate (e.g. introduction.23.0.html). OK, I'll show an example: - Client requests page "products.12.0.html" - What happens is: if the static page "products.12.0.html" exists they are delivered directly without php-parsing anything, if it doesn't exist the apache mod_rewite translates the name to index.php?id=12&type=0 OK, don't know if this wasn't too specific but I'm just facinated by this great CMS... </slightly OT> Regards Ingmar ----- Original Message ----- From: "Karl Urban" <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> To: <[EMAIL PROTECTED]> Sent: Sunday, November 03, 2002 12:16 PM Subject: [cms-list] Searching for a 'special' CMS > > Hi, > > I am webmaster of a non-commercial portal for astronomy and space flight with several hundred visitors every > day.
