apPopupGen Index - 6.
Preview Menu
purpose:
Preview the generated menu. This is done by incorporating an HTML browser
(Internet Explorer) into the program.
As far as I know all versions of Internet Explorer should work just
fine (I even teste version 6.0 already and it's even better that any
previous version!).
Note: When activating this tab, code generation will automatically
generate code for the preview (PreviewTMP.HTM). You can set the default
language (1 or 2) at the preferences &
about tabsheet.
troubleshooting:
Window
remains white;
Woops,
I think you might want to check the menu dimensions.
A grey
box appears instead of my menu
First of
all: try to change tabsheets (for example go to "Preferences"
and back to "Preview"), if this does not fix the problem,
the take a look at these options :
1. The
applet cannot be found
- check codebase settings
- make sure apPopupMenu.jar is in the application directory
- make sure apPopupMenu.jar is set as the archive to be used
- make sure the code option is set to apPopupMenu
- make sure security settings of Internet Explorer allow you to use
Java
2. Additional
files cannot be found
- imagefiles are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir
and eliminate paths)
- soundfiles are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir
and eliminate paths)
3. Useless
button
One button has no link or not an submenu. Each item/button must either
have a link or a submenu!
4. Missing
link but defined target
The applet does not appreciate that you define a target (for example
"_self") while you did not define a link.
This often happens when creating menu's that will contain submenu's
or you simple forgot to enter the link.
Images\Sounds
do not appear in my menu
- imagefiles
are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir and eliminate
paths)
- soundfiles are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir
and eliminate paths)
File
Not found error
The browser
cannot locate the generated file (PreviewTMP.HTM in the application
directory).
Make sure there is enough spave on your disk and that you can write
to disk.
I get
an "The page cannot be displayed" error
Several
options here:
1. The
applet cannot be found
- check codebase settings
- make sure apPopupMenu.jar is in the application directory
- make sure apPopupMenu.jar is set as the archive to be used
- make sure the code option is set to apPopupMenu
- make sure security settings of Internet Explorer allow you to use
Java
2. Additional
files cannot be found
- imagefiles are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir
and eliminate paths)
- soundfiles are cannot be found (ie. copy them to the application dir
and eliminate paths)
