London, United Kingdom, 10 September, 2009 – Asbru Software has released version 7.1 of the Asbru Web Content Management system designed to provide control and simplicity for non-technical users while maintaining flexibility and power for developers.

This release also includes several new features for online stores and many significant improvements for system integrators and developers.
Deliver Content to Mobile Phones
The new version 7.1 enables organizations to easily deliver content tailored for different devices such as mobile phones and PCs.
The content management system’s flexible template system already lets organizations build several versions of their websites. The new functionality now enables organizations to easily configure, which version of a website to display for specific devices.
So an organization can for example build and display a simplified mobile friendly version of their website to mobile phone users and another version of their website with a layout to fit larger screen sizes to other users. The new functionality enables organizations to configure special website versions for as many different devices as required.



DHTMLX 2.5 have just been released, one of the most interesting JavaScript libraries to build amazingly rich UI for web applications for both GPL open source and commercial apps. “We were working hard, carefully preparing this update, to make it more comfortable and easy for you to build rich web interfaces with our dhtmlx components” announced Ivan Petrenko.
Version 2.5 introduces lots of significant improvements, including:
Object API
In addition to the existing functional API, all the components now have an object API that provides a familiar way of initialization for those who are used to work with object oriented model. Instead of writing large number of commands, you can now define an object within a single command with all the properties set inside of it. This new object based approach allows you to initialize the components in more simple and clear manner. The old commands based model is still available as well.
