Form Processing capability introduced. Form
data can be printed, saved to file, stored via MAPI in the user's outbox, or sent directly
via SMTP. Optional encryption of returning form data
implemented, using the standard Blowfish encryption algorithm. Functionality to decrypt
the returning data included (obviously!).
Credit Card numbers entered on forms can be algorithmically
validated.
Added support for Embedded Fonts, which allow non-standard
fonts to be carried around with the presentation.
Added ability to have a Splash Screen.
Added a user-definable Logo at the right of the Toolbar.
Extended the Page Protection concept to allow the protection of
complete directories as well as individual pages.
Additional sibling directories can be included, to support
the arrangement (for example) where the HTML and graphics are divided between an IMAGES
and TEXT directory at the same "level", and references to images are via links
such as <IMG SRC="../IMAGES/xxx.jpg".
Added special links #WCPRINT and #WCPAGESETUP to allow
printing and page set-up functions in "Clean-Screen" mode.
Added the ability to produce presentations that have pages with passwords
related to the system they execute on, such that pages in a presentation can only be
seen on a specific system, the same password will not work on another system. (Sort of
"copy protection").
Allow specification of No Address Bar in compiled
presentations (the Address bar is sometimes a bit useless in framed presentations).
Allow a compiled presentation to reference data externally. If the data isn't
"compiled in" to the presentation then the engine will try to find it
externally, in the same "relative" position. (i.e. if a reference is made to
image.gif which was not in the same directory as the home page when compiled, then it will
look for it in the same directory as the presentation is running from. Similarly if a file
xxx\image.jpg is referenced but not included then it will look for the image.jpg file in
the xxx subdirectory relative to where it is running from). The default is not to do this.
It is controlled by an option on the Functionality Tab of the Compiler options dialog.
Compiler now remembers what you were last working on.
Provided a mechanism to import and export the Presentation
Profile, to facilitate changing directory structures or moving to a new PC.
The Enter key will now initiate a search, previously only a mouse click could do it.
Considerably reduced the overhead in compiled presentations. Down from over 600K to
under 400K even with the additional functionality.
Corrected bug that could prevent the Copy command from working.
Corrected bug that could sometimes leave the toolbar visible in clean-screen mode.
Corrected bug that could prevent Favorites from being stored on Win95 systems due to
differences in Registry handling (worked OK on Win98 and NT4 - thanks Microsoft!).
Corrected bug in Search that could sometimes return innapropriate pages as well as
those containing the required string.
Searching improved to cope with foreign characters (umlauts etc.).
Corrected documentation error regarding translating the
"Explorer Bar" submenu structure and some of the elements of the search pane.
