ActivEdit 5.0 for ColdFusion, (coming soon for ASP, PHP, JSP, DotNet) |

The sole design objective for ActivEdit 5.0 is a better user experience, which is consistent
across the browsers that implement the Microsoft, Mozilla and Safari Document Object
Models. While bugs still exist in the implementations of these DOMs, we believe the user
experience is improved and consistent across these implementations with only one exception. The
Safari user will not be able to dynamically resize or drag and drop images. Safari users can re-locate
images by copying and pasting and may still change image properties using the image property selection
within the context menu. ActivEdit useage within a web form and it's widely popular API remain the same. Developers may need to modify
custom functions if they used library functions instead of custom library functions. We suggest developers consult
the API documentation and test custom buttons before updating existing applications. ActivEdit technical users were instrumental in helping to gain a community agreement on standards
adoptions that make the usability changes in ActivEdit 5.0 possible. We thank you all for your
persistence. The standards also make possible the additional benefit that ActivEdit 5.0 has fewer dependencies.
It no longer requires a JRE or the MSDHTML ActiveX Component. This eliminates changes in usability that occurred due
to Windows installer problems or new restrictions on class or object permissions. If your ActivEdit 4.0 license qualifies for a free upgrade either through a current subscription or
