Content Management

CMS automatically detect "flat" and "hierarchical" document types. If document type is hierarchical, it is displayed with a "tree" control in CMS, making possible easy navigation within hierarchy using " + " and " - " icons like in Windows Explorer. It is even possible to drag-and-drop tree leaves between branches. This helps to arrange nested sections of a website for example.

Common data management screen is divided by two frames: Navigation Panel which allow to search and select documents and Document Browser which displays the content of selected document and allows to be switched to Edit, Security settings or Audit mode.

Documents Authoring

While editing each document, CMS shows all fields in appropriate-type form controls. For example, dates shown with pop-up calendar, HTML texts with HTML-editor. All fields pass the validation upon submit. Any changes of all the data are stored to special 'backup' tables that makes possible multiple UNDO/REDO levels.
