Just a quick message to let everyone know that after ten months I have finally released the first official open source version of eNetwizard Matrix Server, my sophisticated content management system and application server. All it needs is PHP, MySQL, and Apache. Full instructions are included on the website. More information about it is below...
http://matrix.enetwizard.net/default.rsw About eNetwizard Matrix Server eNetwizard Matrix Server takes content management and web application serving to levels undreamt, infusing your web environment with sheer power and possibility. Cutting Edge Technology - Never before has a content management system been designed around the concept of a universal point of contact for all requests. This server knows all, and delivers all. - Never before has a content management system been designed to render and manage the content of an unlimited number of domains and websites for an unlimited number of businesses and organizations. Expect nothing less from our server. Core Features - Production Environment Ready. The server before you has had no corners cut in its design. It is stable and ready for production environments, with only a few minor limitations or idiocyncracies. And it's free and open source. - Infinitely Expansive Design. The server was designed to manage an infinite number of domains, websites, components, organizations, groups, and users, all from a single running copy of its distribution. - Complete Content Management. The server manages the content of all mime types and can deliver the content to the requesting client based on customizable settings of the server for each mime type. - Seemless Integration with Other Server Software. The server was designed to complement the job of the web server and server side scripting languages, and does not replace nor interfere with their purposes. In fact, you can utilize all of them from within the system in a myriad of useful ways. - Language Independent. The server, objects, and wizards were all designed to contain its strings in an XML localization file, allowing it to run in any language it has been translated into. In a near future release, it will also be possible to render content into the language appropriate for the visitor. - Cascading Templates. Web page design and layout are controlled by templates, allowing for quick and cost-effective website redesigns. Templates can be modified in real time, changing the layout, colors, and other style properties instantaneously. Templates are cascading through the matrix folder, meaning templates can be defined for a single page or an entire domain or website. - Workflow Ready. This version of the server includes everything needed to manage an infinite number of organizations, groups, and users, all with unique roles, policy permissions, and access rights throughout the matrix. It lacks only a few things when it comes to workflow, and these added features will be included in a near future release. - Inclusive Session Management. The server does not rely upon cookies at all to manage the individual sessions of each user accessing the server. Instead, it automatically and uniquely propagates this information into each request and embeds the information into every link managed by the server. - Search Engine Aware. The server automatically disables sessions for known search engines, preventing them from including session information in their indexes. This is also useful if you wish to create a page for the search engine that does not include the template, thereby only showing the content of the page to the search engine for indexing. - Browser Aware. The server automatically determines browser information from each visitor and assigns it to their session. Some of the collected information includes the user's languages and screen resolution, as well as their browser capabilities. This information is made available via the $Core->BrowserInfo[] array. - Extensive Logging. The server logs activity to all components, from websites and pages to files and objects. It logs all form post and get data, cookies, system functions, and script warnings and errors, depending upon your configuration. It also logs all attempts at treacherous activity anywhere within the system! - Wizardly Management. The server includes a built-in wizard component, which includes the eNetwizard Control Panel, for easy management of every aspect of the server. As expressed by a recent user of the Control Panel, it's "overwhelmingly powerful." - Customizable Website Applications. Objects are a powerful way to make use of the server, allowing you to click once and build anything from a guestbook or newsletter to a first-class e-commerce application, rendered in the style properties appropriate for the website, and fully managed from the eNetwizard Control Panel. - Much More! http://matrix.enetwizard.net/default.rsw -- PHP General Mailing List (http://www.php.net/) To unsubscribe, visit: http://www.php.net/unsub.php
