What are the new features in FileMaker Pro 5.5 Unlimited?

Compelling new features in FileMaker Pro 5.5 Unlimited include:
=> Greater customization is now possible under Instant Web Publishing, so you may not have to delve into the complexities of Custom Web Publishing to control the appearance and functionality of your web-hosted databases.
=> The ability to completely suppress the standard FileMaker Instant Web Publishing interface and display only the layout you design, plus enhanced support for script steps, offers you greater control over the appearance of Web-hosted solutions, as well as the ability to guide and control visitors' navigation and actions with buttons on a layout.
=> Enhanced support for script steps includes support for more than 20 steps; support for certain multi-step scripts, and the ability to let a startup script determine the initial view presented in the browser.
=> Ability to create a Custom Workgroup Portal to gather together on one jump page all of the Web resources your team needs to be productive, including web-hosted FileMaker databases. Your Custom Workgroup Portal can be a layout in a FileMaker database, or you can add the JavaScript we provide to any HTML page.
=> Record-by-record access privileges you set in FileMaker Pro also apply in Web-hosted databases; now you can control who has access to each record, even on the Web.
=> More features that improve the user experience on the Web: Buttons are responsive to mouse over; improved table view; pop-up operators list in Search view; a Sort interface more like the FileMaker Sort dialog.
=> Improved Web Server Connector offers greater stability and reliability
=> Tools and/or documentation for advanced features including CDML, XML, JDBC, and Java class libraries.
