-
- • PROJECT STRATEGY
-
- HTML.edit is an editor for the HyperText Markup Language, the text-based
- coding used for documents on World Wide Web (WWW). All HTML-coded
- documents created by HTML.edit are saved external to the editor as ASCII
- text files. World Wide Web servers follow HyperText Transfer Protocol
- (HTTP) and deliver on demand HTML documents to remote clients using
- browser programs like NCSA Mosaic.
-
- • NEW FEATURES
-
- Most of the new features are covered in more detail within HTML.edit
- Help:
-
- * HTML.edit is a HyperCard-based standalone application and does not
- require HyperCard to run. It's larger than a stack, as it includes the
- HyperCard engine. The advantage is that HyperCard 2.2 is not required to
- use it.
-
- * This version sports an Index card, with functions for saving and
- deleting multiple documents.
-
- * The Editor Window is now sizeable up to 640 by 640 pixels.
-
- * Each document is now divided into a Header, Body, and Footer section.
- This is in keeping with the proper format of an HTML document, and also
- allows for documents larger than 30K characters.
-
- * A late-breaking feature (ie., somewhat operational) is the ability to
- double-click on HTML.edit documents or drag text files onto the HTML.edit
- icon to import the text files into HTML.edit. Note that the editor MUST
- be open for this to work.
-
- • HTML.edit HELP
-
- HTML.edit contains both a printable, hyperText Help document and also "A
- Beginner's Guide to HTML" (downloaded from NCSA). Balloon Help is
- implemented for many features.
-
- • LIMITATIONS
-
- HTML.edit is not able to contain more than ~30K (29,996 characters) in a
- field. Documents can be larger than 30K when including the Header and
- Footer areas (and will export the complete contents of Header, Body and
- Footer), but imported documents will be truncated to 30K.
