I have created custom components in joomla like,event.In these component how i will add multilanguage features that's why i add title and content in a multilanguage?
First, it is important to understand that the Joomla multilingual features are not intended to be a full blown language manager. You will still need to use an additional language manager in order to truly display all of your content in multiple languages. Joomfish has been the most popular, but it does not have a version for 1.7/2.5 yet, though it is supposed to be released shortly. You might want to try FaLang, it's a Joomfish fork and 2.5 compatible. This should help -

How to add Joomfish to your component - http://docs.joomla.org/Adding_Joomfish_functionality_to_custom_components (this is for 1.5 but the process should be similar for 1.7 and FaLang)

At our company we are using Liferay for portals. My biggest issue with developing for such a huge framework is that the restart takes a lot of time even on a decent PC. We're trying to use hot deploying were it's possible but this sometimes just doesn't work (dependencies require restart, PermGen space errors occurs sometimes and Liferay have to be killed, etc.)
What i'm thinking about is that with most of our portlet's we are not really using any Liferay specific services just the JSR 168 provided things which is a standard. So i'm wondering if there's any minimal portlet environments available for Jetty or Tomcat which we can use for quicker portlet development? Of course i know that once i encounter a Liferay specific service call this is not an option.
I was testing Apache Pluto earlier which is a full blown but still lightweight portlet container however it works differently the way the portlet wars are assembled (web.xml should be modified) and it breaks compatibility in our build environment with Liferay. So it's not an option but i'm looking for something similar.
I've never used life ray portal, but too much played with GateIn portal because IBM Portal is heay, mostly for quick development on JSR-286 i used gatein
Currently used for visioneo.org, very flexible for every kind of use, large community.
Here is short summary
Liferay Currently used for visioneo.org, very flexible for every kind of use, large community.
eXo Platform Awesome look and set of web applications embedded. Last generation portal, very impressive! Based on Gatein
JBoss EPP Based on gatein, and designed to work with JBoss middleware architecture
Gatein A great portlet container. Light weight, easy to use. But unlike Liferay and eXo, it does not ship with collaborative portlets (Forum, Wiki etc.)
uPortal Beautiful portal, though its CSS are very intrusive: some BIRT styles are broken by uPortal's css.
Pluto Not really a portal, Apache Pluto can be used as a development / test platform. Often considered as a reference for portlet specifications.
Jahia Great look however not based on standards: portlets are supported but not really highlighted, a specific module technology is used instead
You might want to try the JRebel integration for Liferay. There's an introduction Webinar available, I don't know if it fully applies to the current implementation (the webinar is a bit aged) but it will give you an idea of the product/project.
I am currently developing an internal application for our company with the following requirements.
Rich GUI but only basic HTML like components will be used. So component list is not a deciding factor.
Fuzzy requirements which might change frequently during the implementation stage, and tight turn around times are the norm. Thus am looking for a Drag-&-Drop design
The application will rarely be used (max once in a month) and the user base will not exceed 20.
Time is a critical factor and thus I do not want to spend time on configuring and troubleshooting the framework. I will go for a easy to integrate solution.
I did a brief research and decided on JSF with IceFaces. But am now confused about the version. If I go with 1.8, I get Drag-&-Drop designing (Netbeans 6.5) but I will be stuck with JSF 1.2
If I choose ICEFaces 2.0 I will have to manually design the UI which might take more time.
Any suggestions on which version to choose?
If you can, go with the newest stable version. There are a lot of reason to use JSF2.
You can have drag&drop with ICEfaces2 too, at least in Eclipse (see the wiki). IDE integration is available for NetBeans, the release note mentions a palette (I'm not familiar with NetBeans, but it may be what you're looking for).
*I want to create a cms website and i want to create component or plugin for my'cms.Who can show me the solution create module or component or plugin same wordpress,or joomla?
Learn PHP - the language that both Joomla and Wordpress are written in - and then learn the Joomla / Wordpress frameworks.
There are thousands of existing components for both of these, so you should check to see if someone has already written what you need.
I'm looking for a free, simple and efficient CMS for building website for a small company.
Prerequisites are:
The website is nothing more than a presentation - with informative content and gallery. The website should contain a nice-looking gallery with js/ajax flavour. Nothing more is planned for now, but it would be nice if CMS would feature some more generic modules/extensions in case I would like to use them in future.
Design templates should be easy to adopt and change.
Coding as little as possible.
I thought about Drupal, but is there any other CMS which would better fit to these requirements?
Please don't list available CMS-es here. Give it a reason!
Wordpress is nice too :p It has a big community behind...
I say Drupal.
Drupal is really good in content management. You can create different content types, and assign them fields (in Drupal 6, you will need the CCK contrib module). You can create a gallery with Views and it's output plugins. There are dozens of them, using different layout and JavaScript effects (mostly different jQuery plugins, but there are plugins for lightbox and thickbox also).
Drupal has a group of themes called "starter themes". These themes are half-ready, and it is very easy to create your own custom themes with them. All you need is to create a subtheme. (Basically making an info file and copy some other files. There are really a lot of howtos out there.) There are also starter themes for 960 (CSS framework), so you can make the site layout really fast. The most famous starter theme is called Zen. You might want to use that.
Except for the theme, I don't think that you have to write any code. Writing a theme for Drupal is not hard, since it uses PHP to render the themes.
Still in beta (0.5) phase but looking very promising: Orchard, a new ASP.NET MVC based CMS created by the people from Microsoft.
Orchard will create shared components for building ASP.NET applications and extensions, and specific applications that leverage these components to meet the needs of end-users, scripters, and developers. Additionally, we seek to create partnerships with existing application authors to help them achieve their goals. Orchard is delivered as part of the ASP.NET Open Source Gallery under the CodePlex Foundation. It is licensed under a New BSD license, which is approved by the OSI.
The intended output of the Orchard project is three-fold:
Individual .NET-based applications that appeal to end-users , scripters, and developers
A set of re-usable components that makes it easy to build such applications
A vibrant community to help define these applications and extensions
In the near term, the Orchard project is focused on delivering a .NET-based CMS application that will allow users to rapidly create content-driven Websites, and an extensibility framework that will allow developers and customizers to provide additional functionality through module extensions and themes.
It depends on what kind of CMS you are after
pity you don't like programming otherwise i would suggest django, an awsome CMS framework
if you are after something simple like a few static pages and a news feed or something like that then wordpress might suit your needs well, except i have found i don't like how it handles gallery's
if you need anything more, like more advanced custom content types for products, i would recommend Joomla or Drupal, and have plug-ins that has good support for photo galleys
Joomla! will probably be a better choice. It is very easy to use and is highly extensible.

If you have a little C# experience then you can try Umbraco.
It is a very powerfull CMS written in C# for ASP.NET
It is one of the most powerfull both free and commercial CMS out there.
i recommend to check out the Feature Matrix so you can see if it fulfills your needs.
As an example http://asp.net uses Umbraco
have you tried DotNetNuke ?
I want to hide a Sharepoint web that has been deprecated (via custom means) due to the release of a newer version, whether it would be making it invisible in the sites and workspaces, or via some special archiving function provided by Sharepoint. Basically I do not wish the users to be able to see the deprecated site.
I was wondering what are the options for doing so, both programmatically or via Sharepoint utils/interfaces?
Thanks.
UPDATE:
The scenario where I want to hide the web from the users (e.g. Webv1.0 when Web2.0 is available) is a bit like, okay, I have version 2.0 of Software X downloaded and installed, and it has converted all of my data into version 2.0 format so it will be compatible with new features. As a user, I would not want to use Software X version 1.0 anymore since it is now old. Of course I would want a backup copy of my data from version 1.0, but I probably don't want to be confused by having a link here which can get me to version 1.0 of the software (and from a developer's point of view, it'll be extra unnecessary work to make version 1.0 being viewable/editable in version 2.0).
I thought of the idea of using security to only allow admins to see everything, but I want to explore other options first e.g. whether it is possible to make the link to the old site disappear programmatically.
Thanks.
Could you just remove all access to that site (by breaking security inheritance) and just allow admins only access to it?
Colin's answer sounds like the way to go. Alternatively you can inject a little bit of JavaScript that automatically redirects the user to the new version of the site.
You can add JavaScript using a content Editor Web Part (one page at a time) or by using the free SharePoint Infuser (all pages in one go).
