GoLive
Systems, Inc. announced that it is
shipping it's new web site design tool,
GoLive CyberStudio. GoLive CyberStudio is
the complete solution for HTML layout,
design and Web site management. It gives
Macintosh users unprecedented creative
control and flexibility when designing a
Web site. It also lets them focus on
creativity and integrate the latest Web
technology. Designed specifically for
Macintosh users, GoLive CyberStudio offers
all the benefits of using a
Macintosh--true drag and drop
capabilities, support of the latest Apple
technologies, like AppleScript, MCF and
QuickTime 2.5, and compatibility with
other Macintosh applications.
GoLive CyberStudio
also automatically uploads and downloads
pages and sites as well as supports the
Font Face HTML tag, allowing authors to
create font sets. In addition to its
multilanguage web site development
support, GoLive will ship several
localized international versions soon
after the English version, including
Japanese and German.
"CyberStudio
addresses so many of the issues ignored by
other WSIWYG editors," said Bob Little,
senior associate supervisor for Internet
Market Development, Interactive Media, of
Glaxo Wellcome, Inc. "I'm very pleased
with the way CyberStudio integrates the
fundamental tools needed for site
development, especially the site
management features, and the smooth
transition between the source code,
general preview and browser preview modes.
GoLive definitely understands the needs of
the web site designer!"
GoLive CyberStudio
is set apart from its competition because
of its adherence to the HTML standard. The
strength of CyberStudio is its ability to
let graphic designers and publishers
visually design and manage a
professional-quality Web site. Yet,
CyberStudio also includes HTML source-code
and JavaScript tools, which help Web
designers and programmers integrate
interactivity into a site. With
CyberStudio's support of the native HTML
file format, graphics designers and web
programmers can work together, sharing
files, without going through any
conversion process. In addition, you can
easily download and edit existing web
sites.

Key Features: * Visual Layout and Design
Control GoLive CyberStudio is the first
HTML-based authoring software to allow
users to visually layout Web pages with
full graphical control. Users create a
grid and frames, then drag-and-drop text,
images, forms, lists and multimedia
elements--precisely placing objects on
pages, just like using page layout
software.
- HTML Native File
Format Unlike other site-creation
tools, with GoLive CyberStudio, users
are always working in an HTML native
file format. At any stage of
production, users can share files with
others--using any other HTML authoring
tool or text editor--on any type of
computer.
- Layout, Textual
and Site-Oriented Modes GoLive
CyberStudio allows users to work on a
Web site in the way they prefer. For
example, users can design a page
visually in the graphical layout mode
or write the HTML source code in a
different mode, yet easily switch
between modes. Therefore, users are
never restricted to using someone
else's idea of the smartest way to
build a Web site.
- Live Multimedia
GoLive CyberStudio is the first HTML
authoring software to allow users to
play multimedia elements and Java
applets while working in a WYSIWYG
layout mode, so users don't have to
constantly switch between their
authoring software and browser for
previewing. With GoLive CyberStudio,
any multimedia element supported by a
Netscape 3.0 compatible plug-in can be
controlled and viewed while the page is
laid out--saving valuable production
time.
- Tables, Tables
and More Tables No other HTML authoring
program offers greater control and
flexibility when visually creating and
laying out tables. Users can include
any type of media in their table, such
as text, images, multimedia elements,
Java applets--even another table--by
simply dragging the table icon from the
GoLive CyberStudio palette onto a Web
page layout, then placing the media
within any cell.
- Project and Site
Management GoLive CyberStudio lets
users design, create, import, edit and
view an entire site as a complete
project. Users can graphically see a
site's structure, adjust the site's
hierarchy, add or delete pages, open
individual pages, as well as verify,
change and update links and
anchors.
CyberStudio also
supports Apple's Multi-Content Format
(MCF) for creating a visual representation
of a site's structure.
- JavaScript
Editor with Color Syntax Checking
GoLive CyberStudio is the first Web
site authoring software to include a
JavaScript editor with color syntax
checking. This lets users add
state-of-the-art interactivity to
create incredible Web sites.
- Modular and
Extensible Architecture GoLive
CyberStudio is built on a modular and
extensible application architecture.
This means that third-party developers
and users can easily add new and custom
functions to the software using
developer tools available from
GoLive.
- Multiple
Language Support GoLive CyberStudio can
simultaneously support multiple
language character sets, including
Latin, Arabic, Devanagari and Japanese.
It can even support, in the same text
lines, scripts that run from left to
right or right to left.
GoLive
CyberStudio requires a Power Macintosh or
100% compatible clone running System 7.5.5
or later with a minimum of 8MB free
memory. GoLive CyberStudio is now
available in the retail channel, including
MacWarehouse, MacMall and MacZone, for a
suggested retail price of
$349.
