• Security code progressing nicely

  Lilliput CMS uses HTTP basic authentication as its login mechanism because it covers all objects that are served by the webserver and not just PHP files. This also means two things for the running of Lilliput: - You need to use Apache as your web server, it won't run with IIS as the code is dependant on .htaccess files - You need to run PHP as a module and not as a CGI. This might mean problems when hosting with some providers but as indicated by the previous post you can run Lilliput on your home PC using an installer like XAMP and publish the website remotely to your hosting provider.

• First code created

  Lilliput CMS uses a very simple model-view-controller aproach (mvc pattern). This allows for clean (or reasonably clean) separation of presentation (view), business logic (controller) and database (model). The database uses SQLite, an integral part of PHP 5. While this requires PHP 5 which is not universally avalable with hosting providers I feel there are so many advantages (freely available, no database setup, good supported tooling support) that this disadvantage is compensated. Anyway most hosting providers will upgrade at some point to PHP 5 so this will become less of an obstacle over time. Besides the way Lilliput CMS is setup you could even install it locally at home and publish from tehre to a website.

  I am alomost finished with the ER diagrams for the database design of Lilliput CMS and I created the Model-View-Controller logic for the administrator backend.

• Work has started

  Lilliput is in its earliest stages. Currently I'm working on the ERD's for the database design. Its going to run on SQLite, the database that's standard included with PHP5. This makes it very easy to run Lilliput as it doesn't require an additional database to be set up. For the average user setting up a database is not trivial matter even if the CMS takes away a lot of the complexity of installing. With Lilliput you only need to copy over the files and you can start working on your website.
