new product to their catalog of utilities for Webmasters and Web servers.<br />
BeyondRealms is a Web server CGI that wraps many important functions<br />
required by all Webmasters into a single easy-to-use package. As the name<br />
suggests, BeyondRealms augments the built-in security features of many Web<br />
servers with page level user/group password protection. In addition, all<br />
pages processed by the application can include instructions for dynamically<br />
building the HTML text and then caching the template for for future use.<br />
For example, you can easily provide a password protected product price list<br />
that decides whether to show retail or wholesale prices based upon the user<br />
viewing the page.</p>
<p>BeyondRealms creates a secure platform independent database of users and<br />
groups. This allows the administrator to remotely create new users and<br />
groups without accessing the server directly. All administration is<br />
performed via the Web. In addition, the database can easily handle tens of<br />
thousands, or more, users without significantly affecting performance.<br />
Rather than relying on a text match in the file path, or general folder<br />
level protection, BeyondRealms provides unique protection for just the<br />
files you want protected. No need to worry about accidentally excluding<br />
pages you want visible to everyone at your site. This also means you can<br />
rearrange pages on your site without accidentally losing password<br />
protection.</p>
<p>In the same way that you specify password protection for a page, you may<br />
include commands in the HTML that directs BeyondRealms to hide or show<br />
portions of text, or include standard variables, in a page before it is<br />
returned to the person viewing the page. This sort of dynamic page creation<br />
not only energizes your Web site, but personalizes it to specific groups.<br />
The increased security also means that you can easily integrate products<br />
like SiteEdit Pro into your pages so that a link that allows you to quickly<br />
edit a page appears when viewed from a particular IP address.</p>
<p>When pages are read by BeyondRealms you have the option to cache the<br />
template in RAM so that the next time it is requested it doesn't have to be<br />
read from disk. This can significantly improve the overall performance of<br />
your server. In order to maximize the positive effects of BeyondRealms you<br />
can can have it process most or all of your Web pages.</p>
<p>FEATURES<br />
* Provides increased security and performance<br />
* Extremely fast and flexible password protection<br />
* Protected pages may be moved without affecting security<br />
* Selectively hide or show portions of HTML<br />
* Dynamically insert standard variables like the current date on pages<br />
* Efficiently integrate other applications like SiteEdit Pro on pages<br />
* Runs on both Windows and Macintosh Web servers<br />
* One application does it all!</p>
<p>BeyondRealms is based on the next generation technology found in Pacific<br />
Coast Software's WebCatalog and WebCommerce Solution products. The<br />
application may be installed as a standard CGI on both platforms and as a<br />
WebSTAR compatible plug-in on Macintosh. BeyondRealms is $295 for either<br />
platform. Special pricing is available when purchased in a bundle with<br />
SiteEdit Pro. You may purchase all of Pacific Coast's products from their<br />
Web site at <a href="http://www.pacific-coast.com" title="http://www.pacific-coast.com">http://www.pacific-coast.com</a> or by calling 619/675-1106.</p>
Frames from External Links, and WS4D version notifier.</p>
<p>Supports Windows 95/NT</p>
<p>"The Windows version of Web Server 4D is 100% the same code as our stable<br />
Macintosh version which has been improved dramatically over the last 14<br />
months. We have great news for all existing Macintosh Web Server 4D<br />
customers, you are entitled to the Windows version for free!" explained<br />
Michael Ginsberg, the President of MDG Computer Services, Inc.</p>
<p>NetCloak Commands Supported</p>
<p>"NetCloak by Maxum is an add-on product that offers very useful commands<br />
which are executed on your server at the time your document is sent to the<br />
client, allowing you to create dynamic, conditional HTML pages. We are<br />
adding this support without the need to purchase NetCloak. Once again, Web<br />
Server 4D adds the features that makes your web site dynamic.", said<br />
Ginsberg.</p>
<p>Virtual Hosting</p>
<p>"Web Server 4D has always had the ability to delivery different pages for<br />
different hosts, with Virtual Hosting, we will make it much easier to many<br />
complete sites from one IP Address." said Ginsberg.</p>
<p>Force Frames From External Links</p>
<p>"We have noticed a problem when users jump to a site that is frames based<br />
)from a search engine, they will never see the frames at that site. This can<br />
create many problems. Web Server 4D 1.0.6 will contain a new feature that<br />
will ensure your frames based pages will be viewed in their entirety, no<br />
matter what location clients arrive from.", claimed Ginsberg.</p>
<p>WS4D Version Update Notifier</p>
<p>"The development on the Macintosh version has been very aggressive and now<br />
that we have one code base for both Macintosh and Windows, we have added a<br />
new feature to notify registered users as soon as new releases are<br />
available for download. Every night, the copy of Web Server 4D that is<br />
running at your site will optionally check in with the MDG site to see if a<br />
new version is available for download. A flashing message on the server or<br />
an Email will automatically be sent to you, no need to register your<br />
software, Web Server 4D will do it for you!", said Ginsberg.</p>
