*Hi there,* *I am an application programmer (Java, PHP) and not an experienced web development. I am currently investigating as to what is the most appropriate/applicable open source platform/framework to develop a web site (simple to start but more comprehensive into the future) for tourism or tourist attractions (or maybe better not to use any framework/platform). The following lists the basic support requirements (mainly multimedia, interactivity and future proof) * *1. XHTML, JavaScript, Ajax* *2. Multimedia – images, slides show, music, videos* *3. Simple blogging facility * *4. Community, Feedbacks*
you mean like a forum?
* * *5. Emailing for registered users (regular news release)*
like newsletters or fully personalized accounts?
*6. Database (mySQL or similar)*
does the data already exist?
*7. Search ability (text based)* *8. Shopping facility (online, gift etc)*
also the e-commerce part?
*9. Management facility*
what do you mean by "management facility"?
*I have seen some CMS type of open system, such as Xoops, Lenya, Daisy, etc. But I do not have enough knowledge to make any choice decision. Just wondered if any experienced people here could help me or shed some lights please. *
I guess the choice depends very much on where you want to go in the future and also what base technology you are looking for (for example Java, XML, XSLT). Another important criteria is if the system should be integrateable with other third party components or if it should rather deliver everything by itself.

what exactly do mean by low cost? Cheers Michael
