Press Release Summary = Scand released a new version 1.4 of dhtmlxGrid, an
Ajax-enabled JavaScript grid with complete (sophisticated) functionality and ability
to work with any server-side technology including PHP, ASP, ASP.Net, Java and Rails.
The main enhancements include auto-resizing feature, clipboard support for FF,
improved Safari compatibility and new advanced cell-editors.

Press Release Body = Minsk, Belarus, July 16, 2007 - Scand announced the update of
its Ajax web ui component dhtmlxGrid to version 1.4. dhtmlxGrid is a cross-platform,
feature rich, easy-to-use data grid that delivers spreadsheet functionality in a web
application. The grid control enables developers to quickly implement editable data
grids with lots of advanced features without complex coding.

The major update enhancements include:

- enableAutoWidth method -The grid can automatically adjust its size (height and
width) to the size of the page it's placed on. The grid takes all the available
space on page and smoothly changes its size when page is resized.

- updateFromXML method - If grid content is changed in XML on server side, the
changed data can be automatically updated on client, and only rows that were
changed/added/deleted will be processed and reloaded. This greatly increases grid
performance in cases of large data grids which are to be updated regularly to
display actual data. The feature works in grid extension dhtmlxTreeGrid and with
Smart Rendering mode.

- Clipboard support for FF - Previously introduced in version 1.3 clipboard support
now works not only in IE, but in FF as well. Block of cells can be copied and pasted
it into desktop application (MS Excel, Text Editor etc.) via the clipboard.

- Safari support - Version 1.4 brings better Safari support. Some limitations in the
work of grid in Safari were eliminated. Now all the events as well as context menu
work correctly on Apple's browser.

- Extra exCells - Some new powerful cell editors (exCells) were added to the grid
package, e.g. email, password, native dhtmlx calendar (besides YUI calendar that has
been used), direct date editing, text editor with controlled string length, editor
for numeric values with validation capability, time editor, etc.)

- TreeGrid update - dhtmlxTreeGrid, an extension of grid control which displays
tables with hierarchical structure, was completely recoded to improve its
performance and stability.

dhtmlxGrid is available under GNU GPL (Standard edition) and Commercial/Enterprise
licenses ($149/$449). More information and live examples are available on dhtmlxGrid
