I have been using ExpressionEngine and love it for a CMS . I have my Flash site powered by my RSS feed. So far so good! Also i can create as many blogs as i want with EE. Putting .swfs in EE has been rather easy as well.
Yeah, I had a play around with EE. It’s really good. Anyway, I was looking at word press and I came across http://demo.justintadlock.com/ It’s a template for WordPress. It has everything I need so I’m thinking of downloading it. If I’m aloud to customize the look of this theme then I think my search will come to an end. If I have to keep with those looks I’m going to go with EE.
Nothing wrong with wordpress! maybe look at wordpressMU, or something like that.
If you need EE help just ask via my profile and i might be able to help, I’m still learning myself.
Just realized www.smashingmagazine.com has a post about “100 Excellent Free Wordpress Themes”
might be worth a look.
Yes it is obvious that flash will take everything inside CDATA as a text string. But if you have specific format inside the CDATA tag then you might develop your own logic to parse it.
It goes even further than that. If you try this;
var s:String = "hi"
var node:String = "<!CDATA[[" + s + "]]>"
var myXML:XML =
<root>
<n1>{node}</n1>
</root>
if you trace out “n1” it will be all wrong.

Hey,
Check this page out, they have some really nice wordpress themes, and many of them change the feel of wordpress from a blog to a new/media/general website theme.
Oh someone already posted something similar.
Have you figured out a way to write XML variables wrapped in CDATA tags? I started out making a CMS to edit my sites XML based content but I hit a roadblock when I couldn’t put variables into nodes with CDATA because the compiler would parse out the CDATA tag.
You can bypass this by specifying your XML object contentType:
myXML = new XML ;
myXML.contentType = “text/xml”;
Anyone found anything that will do this easily?

I just dropped that project but I may developed that from scratch in Flex sometime in near future.
