I've been working with PHP for a couple years, and I have some questions
about how CMS's work. I'm going to be doing a site for my dad's
business, and there will be a couple of pages on the site that they
would like to keep updated themselves. What I am trying to understand
is how a CMS works. Is it something where I have to have the system
installed first, and then I have to use the tools in that system to
create my site from scratch? Or can I have a site already created and
just plug in a CMS and specify which pages need to be managed by the
CMS? I know there are a lot of PHP CMS's out there, and I've looked at
some, but I haven't quite grasped how they work.

Thanks.

Steve
