| ACS Templating |
The template
system provides mechanisms that allow developers and graphic
designers to work independently. Templates specify the layout of
the page seperately from the contents of the page. Graphic
designers work primarily on the layout part of the template (the
template), while programmers work primarily a script that
generates the the content part of the template (the code). In
addition, the template system provides a way to use a single
layout specification for many physical pages, so the overall
layout of a site can be more easily administered. |

info as well as an arbitrary number of custom attributes (which
may be used for phone numbers, email addresses, etc.) and an
arbitrary number of street addresses. |

| Bookmarks |
This version
contains a number of bugfixes and minor improvements over the
4.X alpha versions and has been rigorously tested. New features
in the ACS4 (not in the ACS4 version) include: - Adding
bookmarks when browsing with the help of a Bookmarklet (a
Bookmark in the browser that contains Javascript instead of a
url). - Sorting by name and access date - Enhanced access
permissions. The alpha version will only include toggling
between private and public. Future versions could use the ACS
permission API to grant read, write, delete and admin rights to
any party on a bookmark level. It is not yet clear how big the
need for this granular access permissions is. - Display of
keywords and descriptions of urls (fetched with ns_httpget)
Important features from the ACS3 version are: - Bookmarks are
viewed in a tree structure with open/collapse functionality of
folders. Alternatively the bookmarks can be viewed in a
Javascript version. - Importing/exporting bookmarks from/to
Netscape and IE browsers - Checking if URLs are alive - Display
of the most popular hosts and urls in the community Areas that
need improvement: The query on the index page is a bit slow -
closing and opening folders becomes impractible with for example
200 bookmarks. Users who have this many bookmarks can preferably
use the Javascript version. |

| Clickthrough |
Clickthrough
collects information about each pair of local (origin) and
foreign (destination) addresses, including a daily count of
clickthroughs between each such pair of addresses. This
clickthrough log can be used to provide external sites with a
measure of how much traffic originated from the local site,
which can be useful for auditing or confirming revenue
generating clickthroughs (e.g., referrals). Any link can be
clickthrough-enabled by embedding special information in its
destination address. This is achieved by wrapping the href
attribute with a call to `clickthrough_href' (e.g.,
[clickthrough_href http://www.arsdigita.com]). |

| Glossary |
The Glossary
Package is based on the ACS 3.x glossary module which was simply
a repository for a site's terms and their definitions. In the
process of migrating the glossary to an ACS 4.0 package, we will
expand it's feature set to support multiple contexts. A site,
subsite, group, user, or even document (a this point the
document must exist in the database as an ACS object) may have
one or more glossaries associated with it. Terms may have
illustrations (acs-content-repository). Each glossary can have
its security set (acs-permissions), a workflow, and optionally
except user comments. A glossary's content will be stored in the
content repository and its presentation will use the ArsDigita
Templating System (ATS). |
