Firefox support

In Context Editing (ICE)
A major update in this version is the possibility to open a site in "edit mode". This functionality is called "In Context Editing" - ICE for short, and enables the users to edit content and configuration for all objects within the page - without making any changes to either stylesheets or templates.
This function simplifies management, as the separation of the content and the site is virtually eliminated. Current users will find that they are still accessing the familiar form-based interface, completely removing the learing curve for existing customers.
General improvements
Several minor improvements requested by our customers have been implemented.
- Senders name/e-mail in formbuilder can be configured.
- Popup for content and folders now remembers it's state from previous use.
- The action button row is now both above and below the form.
More plugins
In addition to classics like SSOPlugin, TaskPlugin and FunctionPlugin - we have added the following plugin types:
- HttpInterceptorPlugin
- HttpControllerPlugin
- MarkupFilterPlugin
Further details on plugins can be obtained from our developer guide.
Performance enhancements
Several perfomance enhancements have been implemented by using a database caching layer. Additionally the system is able to re-use data in a higher degree throughout the rendering of a page. In particular these changes will improve the performance of sites with much use of menus and large structures.
Database tool
This version includes a database tool, which enables migration between databases, export and import from native format and vacuuming tool to remove unused records. Database migration can be conducted between all supported databases as, the format is database independent.
