I am new to CMS Builder and haven't had a chance to get an idea of it's full capabilities yet. I am hoping to resell many of these to clients so would like to try and use it to it's full limitations.
I have a client who wants a website similar to the one below (mainly the product section) that she wants to be able to update. What I'm wondering about is the product section - It doesn't (and shouldn't) function the exact same as the one on this site, but could I use CMS Builder for her site and create a products section like this with it that she could edit and add products to? Or would I instead need to look at using a database or something for her to manage and add items...
thanks :)

Hi AgentBristow,
You definitely could. It would be a big project though, the UCI site has a lot of dynamic elements to it.
CMS Builder uses a database, it's basically a system for rapidly building an editor and viewer for your database content.
Subcategories are the trickiest part so far, but there's a few threads on how to do them and we can certainly help. Do you know how many product categories she has and how many levels deep they go?
