CMS - I don't quite get it???

Expand Post »

I know what CMS stands for, but what does it really do? I mean, I don't quite get what is happening when I see someone's CMS.

Can anyone break it down to me. Thanks.

Re: CMS - I don't quite get it???

Preferred code conversion date to AD Hijra only the language of Java Script

PHP Syntax (Toggle Plain Text)
function formatTimestamp($time) { 
    global $datetime, $locale; 
    ereg ("([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2}) ([0-9]{1,2}):([0-9]{1,2}):([0-9]{1,2})", $time, $datetime); 
    $time = mktime($datetime[4],$datetime[5],$datetime[6],$datetime[2],$datetime[3],$datetime[1]); 
    // COPYRIGHT 2002 BY Ahmed-Samara www.daniweb.com/forums/member173926.html // 
    $TDays=round($time/(60*60*24)); 
    $HYear=round($TDays/354.37419); 
    $Remain=$TDays-($HYear*354.37419); 
    $HMonths=round($Remain/29.531182); 
    $HDays=$Remain-($HMonths*29.531182); 
    $HYear=$HYear+1389; 
    $HMonths=$HMonths+10;$HDays=$HDays+23; 
    if ($HDays>29.531188 and round($HDays)!=30){ 
    $HMonths=$HMonths+1;$HDays=Round($HDays-29.531182); 
    }else{ 
        $HDays=Round($HDays); 
    }

    if ($HMonths>12) { 
        $HMonths=$HMonths-12; 
        $HYear = $HYear+1; 
    } 
 
    $datetime = "$HDays-$HMonths-$HYear &aring;&Uuml;"; 
    return($datetime); 
}
function formatTimestamp($time) { 
    global $datetime, $locale; 
    ereg ("([0-9]{4})-([0-9]{1,2})-([0-9]{1,2}) ([0-9]{1,2}):([0-9]{1,2}):([0-9]{1,2})", $time, $datetime);

    $HMonths=round($Remain/29.531182); 
    $HDays=$Remain-($HMonths*29.531182); 
    $HYear=$HYear+1389;

    $datetime = "$HDays-$HMonths-$HYear &aring;&Uuml;"; 
    return($datetime); 
}

But the problem in line code PHP, in directional mkTime did not get Vankhn reservists in the asp. Even Get the appropriate number ...

Re: CMS - I don't quite get it???

What ?

Ignore that last post.

A CMS is an easy way to put information on a website

e.g if it was a news website you dont want to have to make a whole page every time you want to add an article so you use a content management system. A CMS has a database where the content is stored, and it is entered through a nice user interface.

Re: CMS - I don't quite get it???

Ok, so what you're saying is it like a 'template' if you will, to control this? Am I understanding you correctly?

Its a dynamic site. A CMS is kind of like daniweb in a way, in that each thread is not a seperate pag but one page where the content is loaded from a database.

Re: CMS - I don't quite get it???

RSS allow users to 'subscribe' to your site. Basically, if you create an RSS feed for your site, I can go to your site, click on the RSS link, and add it to Google Reader or some other feed reader and then I don't have to come back to your site to check and see if it has been updated. You can update the rss file, which will show up in Google Reader, and then I know that there is something new and I can go to your site to check it out.

I'm probably not explaining this very well, but here is a link to wikipedia, which has a lot of info on the subject.

Thanks,

Nick
