All right I am looking for decent web portal out there PHP/MySQL or ASP/ACCESS based. I am doing some research on this as I am going to be implementing a Portal, Forum, and Ecommerce for my new website Consolerealm.com.
I have already picked out the forum and ecommerce software out (osCommerce w/Invision Power Board) I just need a portal now. Key thing is ease of use seeing that this will no longer be hosted in house due to bandwidth issues (320k u/d connection) and will not have access to the server like I do now if I “F” something up.
I have in the passed played with different forums using either MySQL or ASP/ACCESS for the database control. And found ASP easier to manage and restore if need be. And the only good ASP based portal out there I can find is DotNetNuke, if anyone knows of any other portals that use ASP/ACCESS or clue me in on a really good PHP/MySQL based portal just give me a shout.
