Some HTML documents recorded by Sidescape contain images that are displayed
as question mark. Why?
|
There are two situations where this can happen. First, during Auto Navigation, the time specified in the display each page for setting may be too short. Or, during manual navigation, when you are clicking a new anchor before an entire page can be displayed. The second situation happens as follows: When Sidescape saves WWW pages on your computer's hard disk, it reads and alters the anchors (links) imbedded in those pages -- so that the anchors point to locally-stored pages. Sometimes, though, WWW pages contain anchors coded with HTML tags that Sidescape does not support. When this happens, the anchor will not be changed, or it might be changed improperly. In this case, a question mark will be displayed.
Here are three categories of anchors that Sidescape has trouble altering:
- http://www.foo.com will be recorded as if it were http://www.foo.com/index.html,
but it may not be the correct name. Because it
depends on the setting of the site's http server.
- If a symbolic link, a kind of nickname, is used as an anchor, Sidescape cannot
determine the actual "path name."
- If there is a JavaScript in the HTML page, set to retrieve images or files not
present in the downloaded page, Sidescape cannot know what the JavaScript
program was intended to do.
