Elxis 4.1 Poseidon

Tuesday, 07 May 2013

Elxis 4.1 Poseidon Elxis 4.1 Poseidon was published and is available for download from elxis.org web site. The most important about Elxis 4.1 is that, for the first time, provides a friendly to mobile phones and tablets version of the web site. If a handheld device is detected Elxis generates a mobile version of the requested page instead of the standard one for desktop computers. An other cool addition on the 4.1 release is the CSS and Javascript minifier. Elxis unifies and compresses CSS and JS files generating pages that loads faster, consuming less bandwidth, and having a smaller HTML head section. Smaller scale improvements and additions have been made in other areas of Elxis and also some bug fixes. An update patch for 4.0 users will soon be released.
