| "...the best system I've come across for getting our data on the web. And I am particularly impressed by WebMerge's handling of long fields (some of ours are up to 50,000 characters). "On my first use of the full program yesterday, WebMerge generated 4.5MB of clean, error free HTML in less than 9 seconds. Pretty impressive." |

What's WebMerge?
"...easy, low-cost Web publishing software to create a database-derived site that doesn't require any complex Web database infrastructure."
- Macworld Magazine, March 2003
"Webmerge is one of those software programs that you wonder 'Where has this been all my life' after you use it."
- AffiliateWatcher.comWebMerge lets you export your database to HTML, generating static Web pages from your database content.
WebMerge works with any database or spreadsheet that exports in tab-delimited, Merge, or other tabular format, including FileMaker Pro, Microsoft Access, and AppleWorks. Using HTML template pages you can make with your favorite authoring tool, WebMerge makes a new HTML page from the data in each record of the exported file. WebMerge can also create index pages with links to each of the detail pages. Generated pages can be hosted on any Web server - even AOL - without the need for a specialized database hosting solution.
WebMerge provides support for multi-column index page layouts, a new WM-FieldInclude tag which lets you insert a text file or HTML file referenced by a path in your field data, enhanced support for JavaScript and CSS in navigation tags, and a few other minor enhancements. This version also provides enhanced documentation and examples, addresses all bugs reported to date, and is even faster in some operations than previous versions.
WebMerge requires no DLLs, extensions, CGIs, or other components. Everything you need to start generating pages is included in one easy-to-use application.
A wide variety of businesses, universities, and other organizations rely on WebMerge daily, ranging from Web designers to the US Library of Congress. Most of our customers tell us that WebMerge paid for itself with the first project they used it on.
4W WebMerge is:
Easy to use
"This is a GREAT product . . . powerful, logical, intuitive, and reasonably priced. I love it."
Flexible
"After downloading WebMerge in 2003, we were able to add more products than we have ever had, combined. WebMerge has been an easy, flawless addition to our "staff", and it was a great investment at a low price."
Fast
"Perhaps the most wonderful aspect of WebMerge is the ease of making updates. Make a quick change to the data, click a couple buttons...and it is done."
What's New in WebMerge 2.4:
- WM-If tag has been extended to support multiple conditions, with AND and OR operators and nested parentheses to allow complex evaluations of data from multiple fields.
- The new WM-Wiki tag allows you simple syntax in your database fields to generate web content.
- The WM-ImagePath tag has been extended to allow standard HTML image attributes which will be included in the generated code.
- Generated pages can now have file names up to 255 characters on Windows.
- Much of the program has been highly optimized, resulting in performance that's often more than twice as fast as previous versions.
- All paths to directories and other settings are now stored as relative to the settings file, making it easy to move WebMerge-based solutions from one computer to another.
- Improved appearances on all supported platforms, including native controls on Windows XP and Mac OS X.
- Various minor bug fixes. All reproducible issues have been addressed for this release.
Because you can save your WebMerge settings to a file, you can easily set up even complex workflows that can be run by others with no training - if they can double-click a file, they can run WebMerge.
Corporations, universities, even private Web designers can set up publishing systems for their clients and customers, or trade work with other team members. WebMerge files can be used on either Mac OS or Windows, so you can share your work with anyone who has a licensed copy of WebMerge.
Our new workgroup pricing makes it even easier. You can get a 3-pack or 5-pack of WebMerge licenses at a steep discount:

| Just wanted to thank you for Webmerge. We are using it in at least four different areas on our public service site. Webmerge allowed us to get a lot of information posted quickly without the expense and expertise required for a server-side database. Must be doing something right, because we're now getting about a thousand home page hits a day. Thanks again. |
