SnippetMaster
by letam - Dec 20th 2005 06:19:33
Excellent program! I found the install to be very easy and well documented.
The program works great and has many features that I was looking for. Great
way to give your clients a way to edit parts of their website without
knowing any html. Highly recommend it! The Lite version is good, but the
Pro version is Great!

Internet Explorer only
by Richard Clark - Aug 30th 2002 23:49:37
It would seem to be limited to Internet Explorer (ie, activex controls) for
the wysiwyg editing functionality. This isn't made clear anywhere on the
site (certainly didn't work under mozilla).

I actually specify the requirements for SnippetMaster on the "install"
page of the website. It very cleary states that IE 5.5 or higher is
required.
This is not because of ActiveX controls, but because the WYSIWYG editor
uses a lot of DHTML/MSHTML.
Cheers!
