The latest version of ExpressionEngine, the web content management system we use heavily, has two new developments that are so exciting and important they’re being called nuclear.
Extensions are a third method of changing the system itself, making it EE extremely plastic. Whereas the other two methods—plug-ins and modules—allow for the addition of new functionality, extensions allow for the changing of current functionality.
Field relationships meanwhile add a lot of power to the system’s data handling. Now not only are EE’s data stacks shapeable, but tunnels can be created every which way among them.
During the course of making this site we made png4ie, an ExpressionEngine plugin to make it easy to display PNG files on the dominant web browser IE6. At deepend.it PNGs allow shadowed boxes on top of a gradient background. See the discussion at the EE support forum.
