Elxis is a CMS that was initially based on Mambo. It natively supports UTF-8 encoding, creates multilingual Web sites, has a multilingual administration environment, performs automatic translations, supports multiple databases, and features access and user management. You can also change the look and feel of your Web site, based on the selected language. There is a mechanism that allows you to create subscriptional or multilevel content. Elxis can be extended by converting existing PHP applications or by briding with other Web sites or applications.
