What Do All Those Little Buttons Do?

In this article we will take a closer look at the CMS editor and each of its buttons. As previously stated, the editor is as basic as Microsoft Word, with the ability to insert images and Flash animations, and video footage.

Depending on when your web site was created your buttons may be slightly different or you may not even have some of the buttons shown on this page. We have left the pictures of the older buttons up for the benefit of all of our clients.

If you have a button on your site that is not shown on this page, simply move your mouse over the button and wait a couple of secions and a small box will appear that will tell you what that particualr button does.
