Verrry useful command:

ALL elements on the page of the same type and
let's you select them. Great for jumping back and forth between
elements! And if you pick an A tag - it shows you the HREF! |
commands |

Andrew Wooldridge |
11/30/98 |
This handy thing
allows you to keep a "scratch pad" of various html
code, comments, snippets, etc. Which you can use ACROSS sites,
and can paste directly into the page! Be sure to get BOTH
FILES! The data file is essential but you can "reset
it" by doing a "create pad".UPDATED! Please
re-download this if you have already - it adds support for long
scratch names. |
|
| Web

Andrew Wooldridge |
11/30/98 |
This is similar to
scratch pad, only you only put urls here. Allows you to insert
the bookmark as a link in your page, or to visit that link in
your browser! (Launches your browser and goes to that link)

| Style
to Top |
Andrew Wooldridge |
12/02/98 |
When building cross-browser
layers, the style info for that layer (div or span) is inside
the tag. This command removes the style info and places it at
the top of the page. This is useful for when you want to eventually
extract this and put it in a separate stylesheet. |

|

of news articles. You provide a "template" HTML
and it creates articles in HTML replacing special tags with
specific data.
Requires
DWfile!
|
|

| Inherit
Page Properties |
AW |
04/30/99 |
Every want to use
another page as a template for you new one? Well now you can
do it more easily! With this command you choose a page that
will be the "source" of html for your current one.
You can choose just to get the bgcolor or the background gif,
or all the scripts, or all the tables, or all the images, or
just the stylesheets, .... etc. etc. You can even choose ANY
tag to suck from the source page into the target page (like
layers or forms). WOW! |
|
| Import
Content |
AW |
05/03/99 |
This Command allows
you to insert the contents of one HTML file into another. If
you select an HREF to be "replaced" by this content
it will pre-fill the path of the file to inset with the path
of the href url. |
|
| Export
Content |
AW |
05/04/99 |
This command is the
opposite of Import Content. It takes any single element (to
get many elements, wrap them in a non-positioned DIV or span
tag) and saves that element out to it's own HTML file - then
replaces that element on the page with a link to that element.
You have to modify that link though since it is a file:// URL.
Just remove the extra path information. |

Opposite of Ascii
to Tables - converts a table to a delimited text string (you
choose the delimiter) |

List |
AW |
05/06/99 |
This command really shows off DWfile's power! It will place
in the current document (replacing any content in there so
use a new blank file!) a complete listing of all the files
in your site. These links are absolute, so you'll need to
convert them to relative if you want to use this page on your
remote site. This is basically a demo of my new site traversal
code.
Warning! For larger sites you need to give DW lots o fmemory
or you will crash!

column and added a new tag "widate" which resolves
to the current date and time. See docs.
