  11            <td width="84%" valign="top" class="data">Mambots are essentially code snippets which when called via various parameters either activate a program, script or perform a specific function. They can be as simple as a function which replaces typed text with code (such as typing to display an image in a Content Item) to full fledged third party libraries (such as WYSIWYG editors or other programs). Mambots are divided into 5 types/categories that may be displayed by filtering in the filter field:
  12            <ul>
  13                 <li>authentication</li>
  14                 <li>content</li>
  15                 <li>editors</li>
  16                 <li>editors-xtd</li>
  17                 <li>search</li>

  20            <ul><li></li><strong>Mambot Name: </strong>This lists the names of
  21                 the Mambots currently installed. Click the name to edit any of
  22                 the mambots.
  23            
  24                      <li><strong>Published: </strong>This shows whether the Mambot
  25                           is published or unpublished. Click on the icon if you
  26                           wish to toggle its state.</li>
  27                      <li><strong>Reorder:</strong>&nbsp; Click
  28                           the arrow icons to move the item up or down in the list.
  29                           This has no effect on the Front-end of your site.&nbsp; You
  30                           only reorder to help you organize your list of mambots
  31                           in the Back-end.</li>
  32                      <li><strong>Order: </strong>This shows the order of Mambots
  33                           in relation to other Mambots of the same type. Type&nbsp; the
  34                           new numbers in the order that you wish your mambots
  35                           to appear in the Back-end. You can change the order
  36                           any two or more mambots at the same time.&nbsp; Click
  37                           the &quot;Save Order&quot; icon
  38                           next to the Column Heading &quot;Order.&quot; This has
  39                           no effect on the Front-end of your site.</li>
