aWebDap is a web front-end to an LDAP address directory server. aWebDap provides a friendly way to query, view, update, add and delete data on the LDAP server.
AWebDap supports HTML web browsers but also offers unique support for web enabled cell phones using WTAI for dialing and address book interface features. It supports LDAP URLs which will interface with the address book in MS/Outlook.
The native LDAP server capabilities are unchanged and will interface with address clients in their usual fashion. It also supports vCARD which works very well for some cell phones, personal organizer applications and the Netscape 4.X address book.
Unlike other web front-ends, use of the aWebDap front-end was intended for the non-techie and presents an interface which is intuitive. (i.e. you dont have to understand LDAP jargon like dn statements) Even your mother will like it!
aWebDap is a CGI executable which provides a friendly web front-end to an LDAP database for users and administrators. The aWebDap system is comprised of three files, (1) an executable which can be placed in your "/cgi-bin/" directory, (2) an HTML form to interface with the CGI, and (3) the configuration file /etc/awebdap.conf.
The power and flexibility of aWebDap comes from the configuration file which presents many options to the user from a fully featured web pressentation for web browsers and a low weight pressentation for PDA and cell phone web access. Awebdap also supports https secure connections.
Enhancements:
- Support for specifying language and charset was added.
- AWebDap now supports Yahoo map URLs.

Dynamic Web Page Effects package contains several products which allow a variety of effects and controls to be added to web pages. The effects and controls allow more information to be placed within an area of a web and at the same time provide visitors with a dynamic and interactive experience.
Main features:
Active Scrolling Text
- Virtually any content can be added to the scroller including images, links, tables and of course text.
Active Image Viewer
- Image Viewer provides a very efficient way to display multiple images within a small area. Thumbnails are automatically generated and displayed to your visitors (removing the need for you to create smaller versions of your images / pictures). When a visitor clicks a thumbnail the full size image is displayed within the current page. Each full size image may have link attached to it which can be set to either open in the current browser window or a new window.
Advanced Scrolling Text
- Adding a Scrolling Text feature to a web page is great way to pack a great deal of information into one small area. In addition the animation introduced by the scrolling / moving text will attract the visitors eye to your most important messages.
Banner Rotation
- The Advanced Banner Rotation software enables you to display all your adverts in just one area of your page. No longer will those adverts swamp your real content.
Fading Images
- Fading Images 2 enables multiple images to be displayed within a single area. The transition between images is a very smooth fading effect, the speed of which can be varied by changing the parameter values.
Fading Text
- Advanced Fading Text allows you to display multiple messages within a single screen area. With an animated fading text effect this is an excellent way to display multiple messages whilst leaving the majority of your page free for the real content.
Slide Show
- The Advanced Slide Show is designed to display your slides in sequence with a range of changeover effects. In addition you can specify multiple link areas within any slide.
Sliding Text
- A visitors eye is automatically drawn to any animated area within a web page. Display your most important messages and links within the Advanced Sliding Text to grab your visitors attention.
Typewriter
- A Typewriter text effect is an excellent way to display multiple messages whilst leaving the majority of your page free for the real content.

Charles is an HTTP proxy / Reverse Proxy / HTTP monitor that enables a developer to view all of the HTTP traffic between their machine and the Internet. This includes requests, responses and the HTTP headers (which contain the cookies and caching information).
Charles can act as a man-in-the-middle for HTTP/SSL communication, enabling you to debug the content of your HTTPS sessions.
Charles simulates modem speeds by effectively throttling your bandwidth and introducing latency, so that you can experience an entire website as a modem user might (bandwidth simulator).
Charles is especially useful for Macromedia Flash developers as you can view the contents of LoadVariables, LoadMovie and XML loads. More about Charles and Flash.
Charles is also useful for XML development in web browsers, such as AJAX (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) and XMLHTTP, as it enables you to see the actual XML that is flowing between the client and the server.
Main features:
- Cookies are shown in the HTTP headers, so you can see exactly what cookies you are sending and receiving.
- Every request and response is recorded in Charles. Redirects that are often too quick to see when testing with a web browser can be seen in Charles. Requests from applications other than your web browser (such as Flash movies) can also be seen.
- Request and response sizes are shown in Charles, so you can see how big each request was.
- Assets loaded from an HTML page are recorded so that you can see how many images etc are loaded by a page, and where from.
- All files can be viewed, including JavaScript files, CSS files, HTML files etc.
- Mirror all responses to disk, recording your session.
- Blacklist sites so that requests are blocked.
- See the results of caching by seeing cached responses (304 Not Modified), and requests containing last modified dates (IfModifiedSince).
- Disable caching by removing cache related headers from requests and responses as they pass through Charles, ensuring that you are always requesting the latest file.
- See whether a cache has served your request by looking for cache-hit HTTP headers.
- View encrypted HTTPS traffic in plain text. Enables you to view requests and responses in plain text even when communicating with an SSL secured web server.
- Reveal unexpected requests, such as typos and 404s.
- View requested images.
- Bandwidth Throttle your web connection to a specified bytes/second speed, and millisecond latency. This enables you to simulate modem conditions on a high speed internet connection (bandwidth simulator)
- Spoof DNS name to ip mappings so that you can test a domain name before it has gone live. Very useful for testing your virtual hosting.
- Export to CSV all of the summary data captured by Charles for analysis and reporting in Excel
- Reverse proxy creates ports on the localhost that act as regular HTTP servers, but forward all requests to a specified web server.
- HTTP 1.1 support - including keep-alive, chunking and content-encodings including gzip, compress and deflate.
- External proxy support - configure an proxy for Charles to use to access the Internet
- NTLM authentication support (Windows NT Challenge Response Authentication / Integrated Windows Authentication)
- Automatic configuration of Windows Internet Proxy settings.
- Search all headers and bodies for keywords.
- Port forwarding support, allows any protocol to be forwarded by Charles and debugged.
- Unicode and other charset encoding/decoding support.
- AJAX debugging (Asynchronous Javascript and XML) and XMLHTTP debugging
- AMF parsing to help debug Flash Remoting
- Firefox proxy autoconfiguration
- Automatic Update Checking
