- Installation NOTES
- June 2, 1996
-
- NOTE: You can view this file again by viewing
- install.txt in CSE 3310 HTML Validator's directory.
-
- 1. If you are upgrading from BETA 1, before
- continuing with the installation, you should delete
- the directory containing the old version, any
- shortcuts referring to HTML Validator, and the
- htmlvalprogram.options file in the main Windows
- directory (usually c:\windows). If you have set up
- your computer to run HTML Validator by right-
- clicking on HTML documents, you will have to change
- the location of HTML Validator for each of the
- added actions. Use the Browse Button to specify the
- new location of htmlval.exe in the line containing
- the application used to perform the action.
-
- 2. If CSE HTML Validator is listed in the
- Add/Remove Programs in the Control Panel, you
- should uninstall the previous installation using
- the Add/Remove Programs before continuing. Remember
- to save any files you may want to keep. Note that
- if you are using BETA 1, there will be no uninstall
- in the Add/Remove Programs.
-
- 3. Make sure that Microsoft Notepad is installed in
- your Windows directory (notepad.exe usually in
- c:\windows\). If not, you may install it from the
- Add/Remove programs application in the Control
- Panel. If Notepad is not installed, HTML Validator
- will not be able to automatically open Notepad with
- the results of validating an HTML document. You
- will then have to use another text viewer to view
- the output.
-
- 4. HTML Validator can be run, after installation,
- by selecting HTML Validator from the CSE 3310 HTML
- Validator Program Group or Folder, or by using Run
- from the Start Menu and typing in htmlval.exe (path
- not necessary).
-
- 5. Refer to the online help file available from
- within HTML Validator for any additional
- assistance. It is recommended that you use the
- ability of HTML Validator to validate a file from
- Explorer by right clicking on a file ending in .htm
- or .html. To set your computer up for this, see
- Setting Up Right-Click Pull Down Menus in the
- online help.
-
