Overview of this book

<p>Mambo is a PHP-based Open Source CMS. Mambo is both easy to use at the entry level for creating basic websites, while having the power and flexibility to support complex web applications. <br /> <br /> Mambo implements the core requirements of a full featured CMS. It has a powerful and extensible templating system with the ability to upload and manage many different data types. User access control, content approval, rich administrative control, content display scheduling are all built-in. New features and extensions are constantly added to the core system, with many more being available and supported by the community.<br /> <br /> Most of the Mambo development team now works on a fork of Mambo known as Joomla. Mastering Mambo is fully compatible with Joomla's 1.0 release.</p>

Languages and Language Packs


You will discover translations of Mambo into many languages (http://mamboforge.net/softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=332softwaremap/trove_list.php?form_cat=332). For instance, you can find the German language pack at http://mamboforge.net/projects/german/.

We will continue to use German as an example foreign language in this chapter. Many other language packs exist and can be found on the Web, but the basic techniques will be similar.

There isn't a reasonable foreign language pack that would provide a proper Mambo administration interface...
