I'm just curious are these sties below using some type of CMS system to display their glossary section? http://www.iii.org/media/glossary/ http://www.automotive.com/auto-insurance/73/glossary/index.html ?
That looks more like some directory software then a real content management system. CMS is kind of a general term, it can be almost anything that holds your content. That iii.org looks like it used a directory script, instead of an article or news script.
