Mainstay Debuts OmniEdit - Free Webpage Editing Camarillo, CA, December 15, 1999 - Mainstay today opened OmniEdit.com, a website providing a free application service to quickly edit web pages anytime, anywhere, using only a web browser. OmniEdit liberates webmasters from their desktop application-based web page editor and FTP client applications and gives them the freedom to edit a web page wherever they have web access. OmniEdit is the first remote web editing system that can be used to edit any existing website. A user simply visits the OmniEdit.com website, enters their FTP name, password, and path for any web page to which they have access. A text editor window opens displaying the HTML code, ready for editing. After making changes, the user clicks a "Save" button and their web page is automatically modified. OmniEdit works with any website and requires absolutely no set-up of any kind. OmniEdit supports all popular browsers including Microsoft Internet Explorer, Netscape Navigator, and the AOL browser on Windows 95/98/NT, Macintosh and Unix. OmniEdit enables a user to correct a typo, update a headline, price, and date, or even correct a broken or changed link, on the fly, right in a browser. More extensive edits can also be done. Using OmniEdit.com, there's no need to start an FTP application, find a source file, or download the file from the web, start a web page editor, make the changes, save the changes, then re-upload the file. Web pages can be changed from anywhere in the world using nothing more than a web browser. OmniEdit eliminates the time wasted "round-tripping" web files back and forth to the web server, or needlessly searching for HTML files on a local hard disk. It also may eliminate a frantic call back to the office, trying to talk someone through making a simple change. "It always seems that you notice a problem on your website when you are out of the office, and away from your own computer" says Tom Nalevanko, president of Mainstay. "OmniEdit gives you a way to edit any page right there; if you can see a problem, you can fix the problem -- right in the browser!." OmniEdit maintains the same level of security enjoyed by web pages today. In fact, OmniEdit can be thought of as a transparent FTP client embedded in a web page. Like all FTP clients, both a name and a password are necessary for read/write access to web pages. OmniEdit, an advertising supported service, is now available for public use at no charge.
