HTML Pro 1.2 Setup Instructions
-------------------------------
* After unzipping the archive, copy the file COMMDLG.DLL to your
\Windows\System directory. If you are asked if you wish to overwrite
the file, press 'Y' for Yes.
* To add an icon so you can access HTML Pro directly, follow the following
directions.
- Windows 3.11/3.1/Windows NT 3.x/Windows for Workgroups
- Click 'File', then 'New', then 'Program Group'. Create a group
for HTMLPro called 'Jaguar Development'. Ensure this group is
showing, then click 'File' then 'New' then 'Program Item.' Enter
the details for HTMLPro; filling in the filename (e.g.
c:\htmlpro\htmlp.exe) and then fill in an icon name. Then enter
the 'working directory' as c:\htmlpro, or wherever you installed
the program.
- Windows 95, Windows NT v4 or above.
- Right-Click on the desktop, then click on 'New Shortcut'.
- Type in the path & filename for HTML Pro.
- Enter the description 'HTML Pro for Windows'
- Click 'OK.'
- To add to the start menu, right click on the start button, click
'Open', then double click on the Programs icon, then right-drag
the desktop icon you created into the Programs window. Then select
'Copy.'
* Now, to run HTMLPro, click on the HTML Pro icon on your desktop, or in
the Jaguar Development program group. For Windows 95, you can access it
in the Start Menu.
LAST MINUTE RELEASE NOTES
-------------------------
* Template Programming
The template file format is very simple. All templates are gathered
from one file, DEFAULT.TEM. This is basically just a series of HTML files
delimited by a slash '\' followed by a name, and then a line in HTML
comment format as a description. For example:
\HTMLDoc1
<!-- A simple html doc ->
<html>
etc...
</html>
\AnotherDoc2
<!-- A second doc ->
<html>
<body etc. etc.
Load a template and its contents are pasted into the new window. However,
should you wish to ask your user questions, you can. You can ask the user
for a string, and have the question code replaced with their example.
The format is [?]:vv:Question[\]
(Where vv is a unique identifier between 00 and 99)
e.g.
<A HREF="[?]:00:What is your web site's address?[\]">
Once the question has been asked, the variable is accessible again without
re-asking the question. The format for this is as follows:
[v]:vv
This will replace those 6 characters with the variable's value. For example:
Don't forget the web site; It's <a href="[v]:00">here</A>!
You may only have ONE question and ONE variable access per line of HTML,
maximum; this needn't be a problem unless you're working in pre-formatted
HTML mode (<pre></pre>)
* The OTHER.TAG file
This contains user defined HTML strings, or last minute additions. The
format is
Name,HTML_Code,Description
Name,HTML_Code,Description
etc.
Note that there must be NO WHITE SPACE at the end of the file! This may
cause HTMLPro to crash dramatically!
