Important: The details below apply
only to the Netscape browser! - The options and commands
for other browsers are nevertheless very similar. Set
proxy
The proxy server is a central server which handles all
browser access operations. You can set your proxy in menu
"Options - Network Preferences - Proxies - Manual
Proxy Configuration".
Set cache
The default for the cache in the main memory should be
set to 3000 - 5000 kB ("Options - Network
Preferences - Cache - Memory Cache"). Different
settings can be tried if problems are encountered with
the browser.
Font type and point size
This line is in the normal font size. If it is too small
or too large, go to menu "Options - General
Preferences - Fonts" and select a different font
type and point size. We recommend the setting Arial 11
pt.
Set links
If you click a Word for Windows or FrameMaker template,
you can cause the browser to start the associated
application (Word for Windows or FrameMaker)
automatically with this document. However, you will first
need to establish the "link" between the
extension (".doc" or "fm" or
"mif") and your application:
- In "Options - General Preferences -
Helpers", click the following entry or type
it in:
"application/winword Winword doc"
"application/framemaker frame fm"
"application/framemaker frame mif"
- The click action: "Launch the
application".
- "Browse" now allows you to define the
path for your Word for Windows or FrameMaker
programs.
Important:
When clicking a template icon or template file name, the
template is fetched and loaded into the appropriate
application (Word for Windows or FrameMaker). You must
now save this document with "Save As", since
the document was created only as a temporary file when
loaded and would be automatically deleted by the browser
once Word for Windows or FrameMaker was closed.
Important:
When downloading Word for Windows files from the
worldwide Internet, you may import macro viruses into
your system.
Important:
When downloading MIF files, FrameMaker versions < 5.0
will issue a series of warnings which you can ignore
since they do not restrict the functionality of the
templates.
