Widgets

Examples showing how various web design technologies and components can be used with AssetNow NX. Design elements can be made into widgets for reuse in page templates. Templates can be designed to render content in any way you choose.

Flash Video and MP3 Audio

Deliver Flash video and MP3 audio with integrated Media Players. Simply upload the media files and add the widgets to the page. AssetNow NX can also stream Flash video allowing you to access any part of the video with minimal delay.

Flash Image Rotator

The Flash Image Rotator enables you to show photos in sequence, with fluid transitions between them. You can use random transitions or select a specific transition. The image sequence is stored in an XML playlist file.

SlideShowPro Flash Slide Show

SlideShowPro is a Flash component that displays pictures on your web site. Images are adding in the AssetNow NX XHTML editor and wrapped in the slideshowpro widget to automatically generate a SlideShowPro display in the page.

Flash Charting

Easily add animated Flash charts to any page using the included licensed copy of FusionCharts from InfoSoft Global and our fusionchart widget.

AJAX and Web Service

Asynchronous Javascript And XML (AJAX) is an umbrella term used to describe the combination of technologies used to enhance web site user interfaces. This example returns the US City and State based on ZIP code without a browser page refresh.

DOM Slides

DOM Slides turns an X/HTML document into presentation slides via Unobtrusive JavaScript. Readers without JavaScript will see one X/HTML page with content split up into headings and content sections. Readers with JavaScript can navigate the slides.

Support Multiple Languages using Unicode

AssetNow NX supports unicode (UTF-8) encoding allowing publishing of multiple languages. This page demonstrates English, Japanese and Chinese (traditional and simplified) content within the same page.

Pop-up Windows

Although the use of pop-up windows is generally discouraged due to accessibility issues there are times when you may want to use one. You can add pop-up windows using the popup widget and load a custom template (handlers) in the window.

Publishing Rich Media - Flash movie

AssetNow NX places no limitations on the type of content that can be processed. You can specify the types of content you wish to allow in the system configuration. Thereafter you can upload and insert content types as required.

In-page Dynamic Processing

AssetNow NX allows you to including dynamically processed items within a page. For example you can process server-side scripting code within a page and dynamically include pages within each other.

Adding a Custom Application using <cfinclude>

You can add custom applications inside any AssetNow NX category or page. This form uses qForms javascript validation and is posted to itself. Calculations are performed on the submitted data to determine a content management complexity index value.
