Simple News Portal uses PROPS which is an open, extensible Internet publishing system designed specifically for periodicals such as newspapers and magazines who want to publish online, either exclusively or as an extension of their print publication.
STANDARD FEATURES
> Well-documented, robust API allowing third party developers to create ‘plug-ins’ to extend base functionality
> Delivery of content to multiple target platforms (HTML, XML/XSL, WAP/WML, text, etc)
> Readers may format a story for printing, or email to a friend
> Pages are presented as static URLs so that ‘spider’ type search engines may crawl and index them
> Strict separation of design and content – designers control site look and feel by developing templates using standard site editing tools such as Dreamweaver, GoLive, BBEdit, etc., while editors manage site content via a web interface
