Features for users of S@S
  • Admins (they are called 'users' in S@S) can have various access rights on the system regarding their tasks. Every single user can have or be denied rights to:
    • Page management, including/excluding the 'Protected Area'.
    • Section management per section.
    • File management.
    • Module management in general and per module
    • Configuration management (and, separately, for every option under Configuration)
    • Tools section (and, separately, for every option under Tools).
    • Statistics section
    These features, in combination with the E-mail alerts makes it possible, for example, to make one pupil responsable for looking after the guestbook and removing undesirable entries. Or give parents the management over the section 'Parents', etc..
  • With one mouseclick teachers and/or pupils can be made users (admins).
  • You can copy a user's properties to a new user. This simplifies adding new users.
  • Two What You See Is What You Get (WYSIWYG) Editors with a high 'word processor look-alike' design in which it is possible to write and format text, upload pictures, etc..
    • The Javascript editor is a simple editor, usable under Windows with Internet Explorer 5.5 or higher.
    • The HTMLarea editor is usable under Linux (Mozilla 1.3.1. and higher, Firefox 1.0), Windows (Internet Explorer 5.5 and higher, Firefox 1.0) and Mac ( Netscape 7.1 and Mozilla 1.5.1 and higher, Firefox). It has extensive table functions.

    In both editors the number of lines the editor shows before the right vertical scrollbar appears is adjustable.

  • A plain HTML editor is available. When pupils want to learn HTML, or when you are a HTML diehard, this is the one for you.
  • Pages on a Site@School site can be made visible and invisible; an indispensible feature when linking pages to pages, or easy for pages you only use once a year or on special occasions. Or, when you need a lot of time to make a page, you can work on it every now and then and no one will see your work until it's ready.
