MonkeyBreadSoftware and geist interactive announce the release of the MBS Plug-in, version 1.3

Two New Components and a new easier to use documentation format!

WebViewer Component

Break the barrier between the WebViewer and FileMaker.

The FileMaker WebViewer control is very powerful, but it was somewhat isolated from the rest of FileMaker. There was very little interaction between it and FileMaker. But not anymore. Version 1.3 of the MBS plug-in for FileMaker smashes that barrier for good!

* Call FileMaker Scripts from Web Pages.

* Read from and write directly to Web Forms.

* Call JavaScript functions from FileMaker.

* Dynamically control the content of the Web Viewer.

* Makes Data URLs even more useful!

* Include interface elements built with AJAX/DHTML and Flash on your FileMaker layout.

That last one is so big let me say it again. Include interfaces built with AJAX/DHTML and Flash on your FileMaker layout. Drag and drop calendars, spinners, sliders, tree menus, color pickers, virtually any interface you can imagine can be integrated directly into your FileMaker layouts. Even interfaces that include full motion Video!

And as if that wasn't enough we added another completely new component!

Container Component

Get Image metadata from images stored in FileMaker container fields

* Get the types of data in container field.

* Get the size of the data in a container field.

* Get the width and height of an image in a container field.

* Get the width, height and resolution a JPEG in a container field.

If you purchased the Complete MBS plug-in within the last year then all of these new features and functions are completely free. If you purchased any single component, then you can upgrade to the "complete" component set. If you haven't yet purchased the MBS plug-in, well you have to pay full price. But with around 80 of the most powerful functions known to man, its still a steal.

Remember the MBS Plug-in already includes functions the can do the following:

* Execute SQL on your FileMaker Tables

o Create Audit Logs

o Create, Drop, and Alter FileMaker tables and indexes.

o Update data in other tables on field edit.

* Control Window widgets, buttons, and transparancy.

* Trigger Scripts

* Execute VBScript on windows, and get extended Applescript support on Macintosh.

* Capture Screenshots to container fields

* Store are retrieve session variables

MonkeyBreadSoftware (http://www.monkeybreadsoftware.de), maker of the popular MBS Plug-in for RealBasic and geist interactive (http://www.geistinteractive.com) have teamed up to bring the extensive MBS function library to FileMaker. The MBS RealBasic plug-in contains over 10000 functions, many of which would be useful to Filemaker. This release brings the total number of functions ported to FileMaker to around 80.

The plug-in is available for FileMaker 7, 8, 8.5 and 9. It is available for Windows XP,Vista and as Universal Binary for Mac OS X. There is a Developer Tool available to help you get started quickly with documentation and Calculation builder. Demos are available on the website, along with license and purchasing information.
