Hi Mark,
Have you looked at Karova?
www.karova.com
It is XML/XSLT based, so that may be an issue if you want a PHP based
solution, but you can get in and edit the XSLTs and of course CSS, so it
is pretty flexible and compliant. Not sure about the Protx support. One
thing to be aware of is that it is a hosted solution, and not available
to install on your own server as far as I know.
It has been used for some large clients such as World Wildlife Fund (not
our client unfortunately), and we used it to build a store at the
following URL if you want a look:
http://retailstore.haptic.co.uk
I think they were working on a PHP-based version, and are working on
more friendly URLs - so might be worth a look.
Cheers,
Nick

I have head very good things about silver stripe
http://www.silverstripe.com/home/
This is an open source cms writen in php which you are able to
cusomise and manipulate.
Simple. Intuitive and user-friendly
Flexible. MVC framework
Scalable. From 1 page to a million
Fast. As responsive as a desktop app thanks to native Ajax support
Standards Compliant. Fully XHTML compliant
Modular. Easy to extend
Template Freedom. No restrictions on the look and feel of your site
Open source. It's free in every sense of the word! (BSD)
Cross platform (Windows/Linux/Mac) and easy to install (PHP based
Silverstripe is fantastic. It's relatively new in relation to other
CMS's, but it sure has a lot of potential. Primarily, it's developed by
a NZ company and was originally a closed source, proprietary CMS. It's
extremely flexible for developers/designers to create custom
templates/sites. The community is growing larger, and the SS staff are
quite helpful. They provide a forum and IRC channel for support and
discussion. More importantly, it's easy for clients/content writers to
create pages, the interface is quite intuitive.
There are a few quirks here and there, no official blog/news module
exists, but there is a guide/tutorial for how to create one. The next
release (v2.1) will feature a tonne of improvements and those extra
modules too. It's exciting times ahead for Silverstripe, and I
certainly encourage you all to keep your eye on it.
I'm actually developing a web site using Silverstripe at the moment,
first time :)
Cheers,
Tate Johnson
