The editor manages rich, multilingual content of all types, uses CSS for formatting and generates clean, accessible XHTML Strict or 1.1 with no deprecated tags. It supports sophisticated editing options and uses Web Services (SOAP) for drag & dropping of files and folders, referencing files in remote libraries, communicating with third-party systems, and importing third-party content. XStandard installs on Windows 98, ME, NT, 2000 and XP. In Windows 98 or ME, some multilingual features may not be available because these OS do not support Unicode.

ScriptQ sequences the execution of VB Script and JavaScript jobs according to user-defined priorities. It is ideal for developers running batch or asynchronous jobs.
