Hello,
My wife is taking care of a non-profit, and she asked me to help her
set up an extranet for the the members. I've promissed I'd be done
before the end of the year... now I have to deliver :-)
What PHP software / library / components could help me, instead of
writing it from scratch ?
They have PHP 4 (I think) and MySQL on the hosting site.
The needs are:
1) in a first phase, manage the directory of members:
- login
- create/edit each member's profile (address)
- search of a member (by first name, by last name, by email, by
interests...)
- listing of members (by first name, by last name, by email, by
interests...)
2) in a second phase (later), add some colaboration between members
(and subgroups of members)
- mailing list management
- some content management: adding documents, etc.
I've some experience with PHP, and a good experience of web application
(mostly in Java) so I can hack things, but I'm sure there are much
better solutions than writing it from scratch...
I was thinking of using Pear for the database stuff but there's
probably some much more complete solution.. basically a simple content
management system is probably what I need...
any idea ?
Thanks !

Francois,
there are several open source content management systems that would
take care of all that for you. I've been using Mambo for several of my
projects ( http://www.mamboserver.com/), you can have a web site up and
running in a few minutes. You'll need to spend a little bit of time to
familizarize yourself with the site administration but it's really
worth it.
Other options include phpNuke, Xoops, etc.
you may want to visit http://www.cmsmatrix.org/ for an exhaustive
list...
cheers,

I have an Extranet tool which I have been working on for many years,
based on PHP/MySQL.
It features:
- File upload / download (up to 40mb!)
- Creation of folders and subfolders
- File version control
- Project and folder based permissions
- Task management
- Robust security model
- Management reports
- Automatic contact emails
You can see it at: www.HotProject.com
I sell it as a managed service, but if you think it would suit your
Non-Profit, let me know and maybe we can do a 'free deal'.
There is a contact form on the website too.... This thread has been closed and replies have been disabled. Please start a new discussion. Similar topics | |

Is PostgreSQL reliable enough to be used for high-end commercial

Hi,
I'm a newbie starting up with ASP.NET,
and I'm getting off to a wonderful start

My OS is Win 2000 SP4 - and I'm using IE6.
I've gotten IIS installed, along with the .NET framework.

I notice that search engines are now finding robots.txt files and catalogue
their contents. Is this wise I wonder? Is it a possible security risk?
I even found the White House robots.txt file on Google. Surely disclosing
detains of the directory structure is an open invitation for hackers to 'take a
look'?
Does anyone else feel the same way? Should we be bringing this to the search
engines attention?

I am trying to deploy a simple web application to my client's
production server, but it's not clear to me how MS planned on having
the Security users managed without Studio.
Certainly someone has run into this issue. How do you manage users
(the ones you would normally manage with the Web Site Administration
Tool) without Studio to get you to the Web Site Administration Tool ?
Thanks for your help!

Hi,
I have the scenario where I have one database and need to allow to see the
information accessible from Intranet and (future)Extranet. I wonder what is
the most feasible and secure way of doing it without buying second license
for MS SQL and duplicating data. So far I am leaning towards Web Services
but we have ideas for MySQL, XML and using FTP to transfer the data in
files. Which way is the most secure and feasible or is there...

Got a sample of MS's "Advisor Guide To Microsoft Access" in the mail today -

I skimmed both, but the SharePoint explanation is too abstract - it's going

Can somebody explain, in simple/concrete terms what MS SharePoint is?

Windows 11 and 10 have less user interface control over operating system update behaviour than previous versions of Windows. In Windows 11 and 10, there is no way to turn off the Windows Update option using the Control Panel or Settings app; it automatically checks for updates and installs any it finds, whether you like it or not. For most users, this new feature is actually very convenient. If you want to control the update process,...
