Interactive Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) Interfaces

TRIBiQ CMS utilizes Asynchronous JavaScript and XML (AJAX) whilst you create and maintain your websites to provide a rich, interactive GUI for your website users. AJAX helps administrators of the CMS by only sending and receiving small JavaScript calls and only the data you requested. TRIBiQ CMS overcomes the need to keep reloading content managed web pages every time a new request is made avoiding the jerky, non-intuitive feel of other content management systems.

Improving Content Management

Problem: You want to be able to smartly manage the content of your website for ease of creating links or finding information. Trouble is, you don't have the ability to manage content items or web pages in the typical directory/file view.

The problem is that using a browser interface often takes a long time in replicating a FTP-like interface due to continuous page refreshes and the hinderance of having to use checkboxes and submit buttons to make changes..

Solution: Using AJAX, TRIBiQ CMS allows you to drag and drop content managed files and folders into and out of any content managed folder on your TRIBiQ CMS website within a user-friendly FTP-like interface. You can create, delete and rename folders plus preview an item's content, an item's author and both the date published and created.

Improving the Administrator Interface

Problem: You want to change the order of a set of featured items within your CMS, but it's taking ages because you have to update every shortcut and wait for a page refresh for every modification you make. 

The problem is that the user may not want to edit the order of just one "shortcut" or "featured item"- they want to change a few of them around, taking even longer.

Solution: Using TRIBiQ CMS, you can simply pickup a featured item (called a TRIBiQ CMS "Shortcut") with your mouse and drop it between any other shortcut, thus creating a new order, without a page refresh. Just like dragging a "Shortcut" around your desktop!

This reduces the time and bandwidth spent waiting to confirm your CMS modifications. We've also implemented it into our Menu Management Panel - allowing you to drag and drop menu the order of each - both to and from a grandparent, a parent and a child level. This makes arranging your CMS navigation structure so much faster and easier.
