Download Preferences | ||||||
Download Preferences allows you to specify two sets of options related to folders on your local hard drive: Download folder - In OmniWeb, to "download" a file means to fetch it from the network and save it on your hard drive until you choose to delete it. Downloading happens automatically for files OmniWeb doesn't understand itself, such as StuffIt archives, and you can explicitly cause files to be downloaded using the contextual menu. This setting allows you to choose where files are downloaded to; by default, they go to your Desktop. When a download starts: - Check this box if you want to automatically have be shown the progress of a download as soon as you start it. Every time a download begins, the Downloads panel will be called to the front. Only list downloads from the last: - The Downloads panel can be automatically set to "forget" about downloaded files after a certain length of time. This can be convenient if you don't want to delete every entry in the list by hand. To change this length of time from the default 7 days, enter a new number and/or change the unit of time. The other two settings allow OmniWeb to recognize when the web page you're viewing is also accessible on your desktop. This can make editing of your own web pages (for example, if you're using Mac OS X's Personal Web Sharing) easier. Local HTTP server address - This is the URL for the server you have desktop access to. If you're using Web Sharing, the full host name for your computer (or http://localhost/) can go here. Local HTTP server folder - This is the folder where web pages on your server come from. For Web Sharing, it's /Library/WebServer/Documents/.
