InnoVal Systems Solutions is seeking beta testers for the upcoming release of
NetExtra 2.0 for OS/2. We are particularly interested in testing the improved
page mining code (for offline browsing) on a wide variety of web sites.
The most significant new features in NetExtra version 2.0 are as follows.
These features parallel similar features in WebWilly Webmaster, the Windows
NT/95 equivalent of NetExtra:
1) Web Page Info: A tiny floating window that you can invoke when using the
Netscape Navigator or the IBM WebExplorer to show the age (and optionally,
other information) for the page that's currently being viewed in your browser.
2) Results Tree: Shows you the results of a page mining operation in tree
form; with each link's title, link text, original URL, and the URL of the
resulting page on your hard drive.
3) Significant Site List: A window which ranks the web sites you visit the
most. You can click on entries in this meta-bookmark to quickly load your most
often visited web pages into your browser.
4) Edit URL Source File: If you are a webmaster, this is a very useful
feature. It allows you to seamlessly and automatically download an HTML file,
edit it with E.EXE, EPM (or other OS/2 editor) and automatically FTP it back
into place on the server.
There are many new options and settings, support for more HTML tags during page
mining (offline browsing support), and fixes to several problems in prior
releases.
If you are interested in being a beta tester, please send an email to Marianne
Roderus at innoval@ibm.net. Because this will be a short beta program, we must
limit the number of testers and will accept people on a first come, first
served basis. Therefore please send a note to Marianne as soon as possible.
Additional information about InnoVal Systems Solutions and our OS/2 and
cross-platform software products may be obtained by visiting our web site,

Post Road Mailer for OS/2 and Hacksaw for OS/2 and Windows NT/95.
