This information is stored in the header of a web pages HTML code. This information is used to let people know who designed the page and who the page belongs to.
Web pages can be of any size, but generally people try to keep them manageable. This feature allows Splash! to do just that, in that you can have each and every page using the same width dimensions. Splash! has 3 viewing modes, they are 640, 800, 1024 which all relate to the width of the project to be displayed in the browser. This means that you can see just how your page looks under different circumstances.
Normal Mode (or Edit Mode), is the default mode of Splash! This mode, allows you to make use of all the Splash! editing features.
Hypertext Mode allows you to test your hyperlinks, without actually having to preview your page. In this mode you can not edit your project at all, you can simply click on your hyperlinks and Splash! will take you to that point in your project.
A Hyperlink is a pointer in one part of a document that transports you to another part of the same document or even to another document entirely. Hyperlinks are also called links. At any time, Splash! allows you to preview you work in progress. This is done by using either the preview button at the top of the screen, or through the pull-down menu. Your page will now be shown through your default browser software. Splash! allows the you to use any browser that best suits you. Using this option, you can set whichever browser you like as the default. Now anytime you wish to preview the page, your chosen browser will be used. Almost all objects that are placed in Splash! can be resized, with the exception of some plug-in's. All you need to do is click on the object to select it. If you now click on the objects bottom-right corner, you can drag and resize the object to whichever size you like. Please be warned though, you can resize an image using this method, however all it does in Splash! is change how it is viewed. The actual file size will not change, and will take just as long to view when downloading the page over the net.Hint: You can lock the aspect ratio, by holding the shift key while resizing.
Stamps
Stamps are objects that can be pasted onto your page. Splash! contains two stamps
that can be quite useful. These are date, and Splash! stamps.
The date stamp can be used to show when the last time the page was updated. This is automatically
updated when you edit or add things to your page. The second stamp is a Splash! icon, and lets
people know that you used Splash! to create your page.

This option will export ALL of your pages, regardless.Current
This option will ONLY export the page that you are currently viewing.Modified

It allows for easy access to many of Splash!'s powerful editing features. For your convenience however, you may hide the toolbar, so that it doesn't get in the way. This can be done from the pull-down menu named Window. To bring the toolbar back, simply click on Show Toolbar from the same menu. The Remote URL, is the internet address to be used as a hypertext target. When editing a hypertext target, you must specify the complete internet address.
