Saarbrücken RealObjects today announced the release of version 2.0.2 of their free edit-on Pro TYPO3 Editor Extension.

TYPO3 is a free Open Source Content Management System (CMS) for enterprise purposes on the web and in Intranets. It offers full flexibility and extendibility, while featuring an accomplished set of ready-made interfaces, functions and modules (= Extensions). Without having any programming knowledge, these extensions can be activated using TYPO3's extension manager. TYPO3 is a user friendly and intuitive tool, allowing content creators to produce and maintain web pages and sophisticated functions with just a few mouse clicks. Currently it is the most popular Open Source CMS in Germany and Europe.

The default RTE that comes with TYPO3 does not offer the extent of editing and formatting functionality as edit-on Pro. In terms of usability the RTE also leaves a lot to be desired. For example, table editing, selection and resizing is much more comfortable in edit-on Pro. Furthermore, edit-on Pro's UI response time is better.

Therefore, RealObjects developed the edit-on Pro TYPO3 Extension, which brings enhanced edit-on Pro WYSIWYG editing functionality to TYPO3. This combination makes one of the most powerful Enterprise-CMS on the market.

Through the extension edit-on Pro editing power can be integrated into TYPO3 within minutes while preserving the editor's configurability and adaptability. Furthermore, selected configuration options of the editor are available through TYPO3's own scripting language TYPO3Script. RealObjects edit-on Pro significantly simplifies and streamlines the process of content authoring within TYPO3. Let your users experience the difference!

The main benefits of using edit-on Pro within TYPO3 are:

• Enhanced editing and formatting capabilities
• Real-time spell checker
• Fully controlled copy & paste and drag & drop from MS Word
• Better UI response time
• Support accessibility according to the W3C WAI and section 508 accessibility guidelines

About the edit-on Pro TYPO3 Extension

RealObjects edit-on Pro is a commercial cross-platform WYSIWYG XHTML/XML editor as a Java applet, allowing individuals and teams to update, create, and publish web content to any Internet or Intranet site. It empowers non-technical users to become content contributors without knowing HTML, XML or other cryptic markup languages.

IMPORTANT: The edit-on Pro TYPO3 extension is free-of-charge, while installing/using edit-on Pro is optional. If edit-on Pro is not installed, any other editor available in the TYPO3 backend will be used for editing, thus the edit-on Pro TYPO3 extension will function even if edit-on Pro is not installed.

In order to use edit-on Pro within the extension in a TYPO3 production environment, you have to purchase an appropriate edit-on Pro license. For more information please see the edit-on Pro Licensing Terms and Conditions.
