- Improved menu layout - Most code is in alphabetical order for easier finding.
- The HTML 3.0 menu item has been removed because it would have made it more confusing
to find the HTML tag that you wanted. All HTML 3.0 tags are included
in the Insert menu item.
- HTML tags have been separated into their correct categorical menu headings such as:
Physical Style Tags; Logical Style Tags, Paragraph/Text Elements, etc.
- MUCH MUCH MUCH! more HTML code, both HTML 2.0 and 3.0, including Math tags, Attributes,
more special characters, etc. have been added to Web Weaver. Over 100 menu items
in all.
- Now when you open a document, Web Weaver maximizes it to cover the whole Web Weaver screen.
- Most dialog boxes now have Help! buttons on them for context sensitive help on that
particular item.
- Dialog boxes also have a sleek new look. No more bold text headings, smaller buttons,
leaner, etc.
- Special characters now have input dialog boxes for easier insertion, and include math
variables, vowels, and various characters.
- Includes imagemapping software Map THIS! and provides a menu item to link to that software.
- Link to FTP Client option on the menu bar.
- Improved HTML Form entry dialog box(FORM MAKER) providing a preview of each type of
form input.
- HTML 3.0 Tables are now supported. TABLE MAKER makes it very easy to insert tables into
your HTML document.
- Background and BGColor settings dialog box are now combined and now include tags for
visited link and active link colors. Also, the text labels(Linked text, Visited text, etc.) for each type of Web text change to the color that you have chosen. Color boxes adjacent to the lables also display the color you have selected for the respective Web page text color.
- Options and preferences settings dialog box that will update the INI file automatically.
Settings include: Working directory, Image directory, Working Font, Fontsize,
Browser path/name, FTP client path/name, and ImageMapper path/name.
- Toolbox settings dialog box that automatically updates the INI file.
- Web Weaver opens with a default template which includes the necessary tags to create a
"grammatically correct" HTML document
- Allows the user to open a user-defined template to start a document
- Date & Time menu item, inserts the current date and time into the document
- ISMAP tag, FIGure tag, and Alignment preview box are added to the Inline Image dialog box
- An insert button is added to the Inline Image box so the user can insert inline image
attributes into the document without having to create an entire Inline Image
tag (e.g., Align=Top)
- Align options in Inline Image box are in a list box format to minimize the size of the dialog
box.
- Attribute menu item added to the Insert menu allowing the user to insert common HTML
attributes.
- Built in Tutorial for beginners.
- Web Wizard provides an easy way to create a simple HTML document
- User can now specify the name of the stripped file when stripping HTML tags from a document
- The Web Weaver icon has a transparent background.
- More buttons on the screen for easier access to FTP client, browser, etc.
- The HTML Stripper has had a few bugs fixed in it. It used to skip some characters, but now
it parses all characters.
- More sample images and backgrounds are included for your use.
- OK, OK. Here's the FINAL story on <P>, <HR>, and <BR>. I used to put carriage returns in front of or behind these tags because I thought it would be easier to input them until
I started getting frustrated. From now on, when you enter a <P>, <HR>, or <BR> tag it
will be inserted EXACTLY at the position of your cursor, and your cursor will end up
on the right side of that code. The exception is <P> which has changed to <P></P>.
The cursor will end up between the tags if no text was selected before inserting
the <P> tag OR the cursor will end up to the right of the end tag </P>. The main thing
is that you won't have to guess where to put your cursor to get these tags into the
correct positions.
- I fixed the Align attribute in the Inline Image dialog box. It wasn't inserting the Align
attribute into the document. That's all better now.
-The toolbox no longer disappears behind the Web Weaver screen, and when you close the toolbox and re-open it the toolbox items will still be there. Also, minimizing Web Weaver now minimizes the toolbox, and maximizing it will restore the toolbox.
- The Form Maker now has the Select and TextArea input types included. Also, Form Maker
now includes a Input Type preview so you can see what each type of Input Type will look like.
- The browsing for image filenames was changed so that only the filename (not the path) is inserted into the text box. Also, there is a choice of having the lowercase letters changed to all uppercase with the click of a button.
- Visited link and Active link text colors were added to the Background/BGColor dialog box. Also, in version 5.0 when a user clicked CANCEL in the color selection dialog box the HEX code would be placed in the BGColor text box anyway. This is now fixed. Also, only a maximum of six characters can be typed into these BGColor boxes. This reduces the error if you happen to type more than 6 by accident.
- The Cut and Copy buttons were switched so that they matched industry standard conventions (like Microsoft Word).
- In the hypertext input box, you can now press <ENTER> when typing in the Link box and the HTML code will be placed in the document. Before you had to type in the Link box and then click OK.
- The Align radio buttons have been switched to a List Box to minimize space.
- The Save As dialog box used to read 'Insert File' after you inserted a file. This has been fixed.
- When maximizing a document in version 5.0, the Web Weaver title bar would read: 'Web Weaver 5.0 - [Untitled:1] - Filename.htm'. This has been fixed so the 'Untitled:1' is no longer there.
- The shortcut key for Enlarge Font has been switched to CTRL-N. Now the Center tag has the CTRL-E shortcut key.
- In version 5.0, when exiting Web Weaver, the Windows task list reported Web Weaver as still running. This has been fixed.
There's still a problem with printing. I couldn't program Web Weaver
to format the pages in order to print them without cutting off text.
Therefore, I have arranged it so you must open Write/Notepad or any
other word processor of your choice to print your documents. You can
still pick print from Web Weaver and Web Weaver will execute the
program you wish to print from.
Also, the toolbox stays on top of all windows still, so if you open
another application you will have to close the toolbox in order to
