Spawn 3 for Expression Web 3
Spawn 3 for Expression Web 3 is now available!
This updated version of our popular popup window generator for
Expression Web adds some significant new features. Our
customers love Spawn! Here's what one happy customer said
about Spawn.
It's a quick and easy program that lets me display our
products exactly the way I want. It was fast and easy to
install and to learn to use, and a very efficient way for
visitors to our website to take a look at our items. It looks
a lot more professional than the way I used to do it before I
found Spawn. If you'd like to see how it works for us, go to
www.timspartycentre.com/rentals.htm. It is a great tool and
the price is right.
Here are some of the great new features in Spawn 3.
New Toolbar and Menu Bar
Spawn 3 provides a new menu and toolbar so that you can
quickly add, edit, or remove popups.

New CSS Browser
Spawn can be used on practically any HTML element. If you
want to control the appearance of the element you're using for
your popup, CSS is your best option. Spawn 3 incorporates a
new CSS browser that shows you all of the CSS rules from your
page's style sheets, whether linked or embedded. Simply choose
a CSS rule and Spawn will use it to style your popup element.

Options for Script Placement and Script Compression
Spawn 3 adds support for JavaScript compression so that
your page downloads faster. Options for placement of Spawn's
JavaScript are also available.

Event Triggers
Just like Expression Web Behaviors, Spawn uses event
triggers on the selected HTML element to launch popups. There
are multiple event triggers available for each element. The
event triggers that are available depend upon the type of
element that is selected.

W3Schools Integration
Spawn 3 provides integration with W3Schools. By clicking
the reference lookup icon for the selected element, you can
get quick and thorough documentation on the element from the
w3schools.com site.

Full Support for Dynamic Web Templates
Spawn 3 detects when you are inserting a popup on a page
that uses a Dynamic Web Template. So that the Spawn JavaScript
isn't overwritten by the Dynamic Web Template, Spawn will show
you a list of editable regions on the page so that you can
select where you want the Spawn JavaScript added. Not sure
which editable region you should choose? Spawn's integrated
Help system can help you decide!

Keeps Your Pages Clean
When you remove a Spawn popup, Spawn 3 will check to see if
it's the only popup on the page. If it is, Spawn 3 will notify
you and ask if you want to remove the Spawn script so that you
can keep your pages clean and free of unused JavaScript code.

Interface Helpers
Spawn 3 includes interface helpers to warn you when you've
configured a popup that might be blocked by pop-up blockers or
that has settings that are not optimal. If you're not sure why
a warning appears, help is just a click away!

Fully-Integrated Comprehensive Help System
Spawn 3 includes a fully-integrated and comprehensive help
system that will answer all your questions about using popup
windows and guide you as you are using Spawn.
