- <td><font size="2" face="Arial">At any time during the
- design process the current DHTML effect can be saved. The
- effects are saved as a standard HTML page containing the
- effect. To save your effect select 'save' in the 'file'
- menu, or 'save as', there is also a shortcut icon on the
- button bar directly below the pull down menus. Open the
- saved page in a browser to view the effect (if running
- the evaluation version, the effect must be opened using
- the file protocol, double click the files icon or select
- file open in the browser), the html page may also be
- opened at a later date in the Visual DHTML program for
- making further modifications.</font><p><font size="2"
- face="Arial">When saving a DHTML effect all image
- references are automatically set relative to the folder
- location of the saved file, If the file is moved to a
- different relative folder location after saving, all
- image links will be broken. To save to multiple folders
- use the 'save as' option under the file menu and select
- another file name and / or location to save to.</font></p>
- <p><font size="2" face="Arial">Supporting script files,
- (.js) html files, (.htm) and possibly class files,
- (.class) are automatically saved along with the HTML
- document containing the effect. The files provide the
- necessary settings and functions which make the DHTML
- effects functional. These are by default placed in the
- same folder as the saved HTML file and must be moved with
- the file when uploading or relocating the document.
- Optionally the script(.js) files may be saved to a
- different folder by selecting 'script folder' under the
- 'settings' menu.</font></p>
- <p><font size="2" face="Arial">NOTE: Below is a list of
- the supporting files that are saved along with the HTML
- page for each effect. These files must be uploaded to the
- server and placed in the same relative directory along
- with the HTML page in order for the effect to function on
- the internet. The data file which contains your
- customized settings is saved with a name that identifies
- the location and file name of the HTML page containing
- the effect. If you saved your HTML page as mypage.htm and
- the data script file is set to save in the same folder,
- the data file name would be 'ocdnm=mypage~htm.js' In this
- way the user can reverse identify the page which belongs
- to the data file rather than searching html pages for the
- file reference. Each effect saves one of these files
- where the name is dependent upon the name of the saved
- HTML page, in the list below this file is referred to as
- oc*.js<br>
- <br>
- <strong>DHTML Navigation Menu</strong> - oc*.js,
- dnm_script.js, dnm_menu.js<br>
- <br>
- <strong>DHTML Vertical Scroll</strong> - oc*.js,
- dvs_script.js, dvstimer.clss, ie4xfix.htm<br>
