Show HTML

If you wish to know what your document looks like behind the scenes (what we call a source file), use the menu item Show HTML. This allows you to view the actual document and its HTML tags. This function can be useful especially if you are familiar with HTML already. This HTML view is now editable.

View the Show HTML Screen

Open a new window that shows the document's text and all HTML tags (source file):

1. Open a NaviPress page.
2. Choose the menu Tools->Show HTML to show the screen below.

Show HTML screen with NaviSoft's home page

Open the Show HTML screen at a specific location in the page:

1. Select text in the page.
2. Choose the menu Tools->Show HTML.

The Show HTML screen opens with the same text highlighted.

Close the Show HTML screen. Either:

• Edit your document in any way (e.g., type a space). The Show HTML screen closes automatically.
• Click File->Close in the Show HTML window.

Use the Show HTML screen

Edit, parse, and apply changes to the page:

1. Open a NaviPress page.
2. Choose the menu Tools->Show HTML
3. Enter a new tag, such as <P>.
4. Choose File->Parse to apply the changes to the page window.

The change you made is now reflected in the WYSIWYG view of the page window. NaviPress will alert you if there are errors in the HTML; you may choose to ignore them if you wish. In addition, you might want to try using the Edit->Find/Replace dialog to search for or replace HTML tags.
