Softpress Systems has released version 4.2 of Freeway Pro and Freeway Express. This update includes the new Freeway Shop, an easy-to-use e-commerce solution that allows web designers to set up shop pages and effortlessly integrate with a choice of back-end payment processors. It also includes an innovative suite of Actions that allows Freeway users to create catalog pages, shopping carts and connect to a choice of payment authorization schemes as well a fix for the Eolas/Explorer issue, speed enhancements and a useful Save as Template feature. It is a free update to the Universal Application. Freeway Pro is $250 (electronic), while Freeway Express is $90. The Pro version adds multiple output options (HTML 3.2, HTML 4.01, XHTML Transitional and Strict), full choice of output encodings, an auto-generated link map, support for multiple windows for the same document, full CSS text styling and CSS Layout, and more.
“Freeway users have always had the ability to create custom e-commerce solutions and take advantage of the commercial side of the Web. The inclusion of Freeway Shop built-in to every copy of Pro and Express has made selling on the Web an absolute snap.” said Richard Logan, Managing Director of Softpress. “With the clear, step-by-step tutorial and useful reference, even novice users will have a real shop running in a few hours.”
