What's New in File Explorer 5?

• This is a brand new major release of FileExplorer and is being released in Beta. There are features that are still a work in progress, and the documentation for the new classes is being worked on, as well as updates the example applications etc. We have been using the new class internally for some time, so in our experience they are robust and work very well. You should test your application with FileExplorer 5 before releasing it.
• Completely new HTML Editor (the old editor is still supported, but deprecated). Provides a fast, robust and feature rich editor. A few of the features of the new editor:
  • Compatible with all version of Windows, including Windows Vista and Windows Server 2008.
  • Requires only Internet Explorer 5.5 or later on the machine, there are no other dependencies.
  • Generates HTML with Internet Explorer 5, 6, 7 and Gecko browser (Mozilla / Firefox / Netscape) compatibility
  •  XHTML 1.0 support (generates clean, standard compliant XHTML code)
  • Font formatting: type, size, color, style, bold, italic, etc
  • Text formatting: alignment, indentation, bullets list, etc
  • CSS (cascading style sheets) support for a better integration with web sites, and cleaner, faster, small code with better consistency
  • What You See Really Is What You Get. Pages are rendered by IE as you edit them, so the rendering is very accurate.
  • Cut, Paste and Past as Plain Text, Undo and Redo
  • Paste from MS Word cleanup with auto detection
  • Link creation
  • Anchors support
  • Image insertion
  • Table creation and editing (add, delete rows, etc) - one of the best systems in the market.
  • Table cells editing (size, colours, etc)
  • Form fields
  • Right click context menus support
  • Complete toolbar customisation
  • Easy menu customization and skins (add your own styles, font-formats, etc ...)
  • Skins support.
  • Plug-in support.
  • Spell checker integration via SpellerPages (additional built-in spell checking options coming soon!)
  • Multi-language support, including Right to Left scripting.
  • Complete page editing, including visually setting the overall page properties
  • Lightweight and fast
  • Automatic browser detection and support for IE 5.5 and upwards.
  • Load from memory or disk, or URL
  • Save to memory or disk
  • Full access to the editor and editor data programmatically
  • Easily customisable, fully skin-able, and can be modified without requiring a recompile of the application
  • Easily customisable toolbars, including runtime customisation and additions (no recompile required).
  • Ability to get and set the text or HTML simply by calling a method.
  • Much, much more!
  • Full access to the DOM of the edited page coming soon!
• New feMedia2 class replaces the old feMedia class. The new class automatically uses the new version of the Windows Media Player interfaces if they are available and falls back to the old version. Implements backward compatibility for existing code, although some methods may not work with the new Media Player control because of changes in the underlying Media Player control. The new media player features almost a hundred new methods for interfacing with Windows Media Player and there is still a significant amount of additional functionality that will be added.
• Major documentation update and rearrangement
• New documentation for the new feMedia and feEditor classes
• Moved all documentation towards XHTML and CSS based, without any inline formatting.
• New feFile class that provides file loading and saving using the Windows API, as well as providing functions to manage file names and paths. New methods: Load, Save, ErrorTrap, FileNameFromPath, PathOnly.
