Yes, NetObjects Fusion is more expensive than some other programs. But how much is your time worth? NetObjects Fusion can literally save you hours each and every day. Because of the time it can save, it may only take a few days to pay for itself, let alone the difference between it and some other program.

New in Version 5:

A new online guide gives you useful information right inside Fusion (including lots from eFuse.com); great new services, and even special online components for e-commerce, forms handling, site search and registration, online polls and more. really powerful but easy sites from databases without all the complicated server stuff, easy site search, search site registration, online promotion, online polls and more! As new Web technologies appear, they can be added, in real-time! That means you're always up to date!

Advanced text formatting with CSS. Cascading Style Sheets give you precise control over how your text looks! Text formatting has been neglected too long and the web, and this finally makes your pages more readable (and attractive)! It's as easy as formatting with a word processor. (I'm very exited about this!)

Small Business site wizard—An especially easy way to walk through setting up your first site!

E-commerce—six different easy to use, drag-and-drop e-commerce systems are now included!

HTML Source View —one of the beauties of NetObjects Fusion is that you don't need to know HTML. But if you do know it and want to enhance it, now it's easy to do in Fusion. The new Source Tab in Page View lets you view the HTML code Fusion creates so you can add code or scripts and still keep Fusion's visual drag-and-drop power.

Built-in preview is another time-saver. It lets you to see how your pages look in a browser right inside NetObjects Fusion. Results are 100% what you see is what you get!

Free Support—that's right, you get free personal support for 90 days—more than enough time to really get you up and running. At a time when so many programs have almost no support, it's great to know you can get answer when you need them. And NetObjects' expanded newsgroups and forums also make it easier to talk to other Fusionaires (hey, 200,000 heads are better than one, right?)

Even better automatic navigation —Navigation bars can now include links to pages anywhere within your site, links external to your site, email and file links and you can control text formatting on text-only bars. You can even build a great full-site map automatically. As ever, Fusion builds great graphic banners and navigation for you. (Look at Teacherswithoutborders, www.Janal.com and www.projects-us.com for two sites that use this tremendous navigation feature).

Word 2000 .doc import lets you bring in Microsoft Word's .doc files with all their formatting.

Improved site import--Need to Fusionize a site you made in some other program? 5.0 makes is easier to bring in your existing web site into the NetObjects Fusion environment.

Background publishing—Great for maintaining big sites, multi-threaded background publishing lets you continue working while your site is publishing to a web server in the background. Publishing is as easy as ever, with one-click publish (and if you use Concentric's free hosting all the settings are set for you, automatically!). But there's also more control if you need it: You can view and control what's on your web server without having to use a separate program.

Cut, copy and paste pastes and sections—Now you can cut, copy, and paste pages or even entire sections. Quickly design multiple text or catalog pages by creating one page and using it over and over throughout the site. What a time saver!

Lots of great new components--Components are NetObjects Fusion's way of letting you add features to the program, and now there are lots of components developed by NetObjects Partners.
