Description         :
"IMS Web Engine (Professional)" is a visual Dynamic HTML authoring 
application for the creation of interactive web pages, games, stories, 
and  educational dynamic content. The program features a WYSIWYG, Drag 
and Drop intuitive interface that is ideal for the novice user while 
providing many desktop publishing components that are demanded by the 
professional. 

Features unique to "IMS Web Engine" include Inverse Mechanics and 
Artificial Behavior which means that vector geometry can be used as 
motion paths in a hierarchical fashion while triggers can be defined by 
more than simple Mouse and Timing Events. Behaviors include amongst 
others: Object Intersection, Object Triggers, Advanced Counter 
Triggers, Metamorph operations or Combinations based on Logical AND/OR 
flags. 

Other features include a TEXT, HTML and Rich Text editor that also 
supports conversion between these formats and the ability to 
import/export these formats from other popular text editors including 
MS Word. HTML can be imported, manually edited and used without concern 
that it will be modification by the program. In addition to creating 
motion paths, the Vector/Polygon editor can be used to create buttons 
and graphics with texture maps. "IMS Web Engine" supports the 
import/export of several popular bitmap and audio formats including 
GIF, JPEG, BMP, WAV and Midi. The program can also be instructed to 
gather all files together into the publish directory to substantially 
minimize the occurrence of missing objects in the web page. 

IMS Web Engine (Professional) produces cross Browser compatable 
HTML/DHTML. The program will also export HTML 3.2 only format or 
compatable HTML 3.2 and Dynamic HTML 4.0 format.
