Hello Geoff,
I've tried Mambo, Drupal and Plone as well. I settled on phpWebSite as it is fully featured and the admin seemed intuitive to me. http://phpwebsite.appstate.edu/
By default, it produces valid XHTML 1.0 Transitional and meets level 1 of the WCAG 1.0.
I'm trying to increase its acceessibility conformance and trying to reach a strict or higher level XHTML. Discussion about this is on my website: http://design.quagma.net
Regards, cameron.

Hi,
Has anyone any experience with Mambo? I'm just building a site for someone now using Mambo, but I can't find any templates that use valid markup and I can't find one Mambo site that validates, including mambo designers and template sites, but still looking.
Has anyone used it and built their own templates (which I'm thinking of doing). But before I go any further, has anyone hit dead ends with it?
I tried to use Drupal, but it's not up to scratch. I've looked at TextPattern briefly, but it seems like a pretty cut down and basic CMS, which is an assumption on my part because there is little or no documentation. I do need something that is standards compliant, or can be configured that way pretty easily.
Plone is poorly designed if you want to reskin it. It's a pain. But there's also a lot I like (and dislike) about it.
What are others using?
Regards Geoff
