Using the Configuration Dialog

You may have observed a small difference between the web page from the Internet and your local copy of the web pages. The scratch-like background had disappeared. This is not a bug, you might want to add an extra item in the list of expected HTML tags and attributes that may contain a reference to an embedded web file. BigFeet web pages use table tags for embedding a background image in a cell such as: <TD BACKGROUND="myimage.gif" ... other attributes>; you can add the capability of importing such background images. To add such capability:

  1. Do File > Configuration for displaying the Configuration dialog
  2. Select the Embedded Panel,
  3. At the component: <Tags & Attributes of Embedded Web Files,
  4. Edit its list field (do not worry about its previous content) so that it contains: <TD BACKGROUND
    Note: The previous list item will not be deleted if you follow the instructions for such component
  5. While the cursor is still in the editable field, press the ENTER key; you will observe that the button at the left changes from "Delete" into "Add"
  6. Click that "Add" button
  7. Then confirm the new configuration by clicking on the OK button of the Configuration dialog
    Note: If you want to make it permanent, click the "Save" button before clicking the "OK" button

The new configuration is effective for all newly imported web pages. You can try by re-importing the web page(s) as follows:

  1. Select a shortcut item
  2. Do Item > Revert to Named State, this item state value becomes 2, meaning "Named"
    Important note: This command is available only if no item of the root has been hyperlink-adjusted (i.e state value of 5 or less)
  3. Repeat step 6 and 7, to re-import items whose state is set to "Named"
  4. Check the results, the related web page will be displayed as intended
