Content Management System

Abstract

Content Management System is a web based application through which one can edit the contents of a web page. It solves the core problem of automating and streamlining content creation, editing, storage, and reuse, thereby dramatically increasing overall content throughput. This software provides the users with ·an easy to understand and user friendly interface. The users are authenticated first to maintain transparency. Every user is identified by the login ID which he/ she creates for himself/ herself. To limit the user's access to his/ her own created contents, approach of sessions has been used, so that nobody co~ld access to any ones else's contents. Apart from content editing, use~ can create the contents too. For this purpose an html editor is being provided, which is very much like Ms Front page, where there is no need of actually knowing the HTML for creating a web page. The created contents are being stored in database and accessed through ASP(Active Server Pages). The software's architecture is based on two Tier model, where database is accessed through ASP, using ODBC data source. In this architecture the GUI Application directly interacts with the database. The user system interface is exclusively for the client, but DBMS can be either on the same system or accessed remotely; In context of the present system we are using database which is residing on the client's machine.
