Hello everyone,
I came across Joomla which is a great tool and I
have heard of so many content management systems(CMS) written in CF. My
question is how the application works because all a user is doing is saving
some settings in the application for example lets say user saves
backgroundcolor property to blue, font to arial etc. Now when user views his
website page lets say pagetest.cfm, this page gets the property of bgcolor
and font from the CMS and displays it to the user. So my assumptions are :
1) The CF CMS page saves the settings or properties in database.
2) on every new page creation from CMS, a new entry is stored in db i.e.
index1.cfm, index2.cfm and so on.
Then, my question is how does the page code for lets say index2.cfm gets
generated? Also, I am not sure how different pages in the website use/get
the property bgcolor, font. At runtime, I guess a query gets info and
dynamically generates the pages for the website.
Can anybody give me a better idea or general overview from scratch of how
the application works? What are the things needed to develop a CMS and so
on. I apologize if the question or my explanation is not clear.
Thanks
