.AHTML Designer offers the facility for the user to create their own page templates and to be able to use a template when creating a new page.
If the "Use Template" option is ticked when a new file is created then, provided some templates have been created, a choice of templates to use will be offered.

HTMLDesigner is an HTML editor, for creating and maintaining web pages.
If you are at all unfamiliar with the workings of HTML then you probably will need some help with using HTML.
Unfortunately I cannot help here but I can help with using HTML Designer.
The basis behind HTMLDesigner is that it is a text editor with the ability to insert HTML tags and to aid you with these tags where appropriate via the 'Tag Wizard'.

AOnce you have altered any of the Tag library, e.g. to edit the parameter types, include new tags, new categories (types) etc, you will need to Update HTML Library to make the changes visible to HTML Designer.
Provided the user has accessed the HTML Reference via the HTML Designer menu item then if any changes have been made the user will automatically be prompted to start the Library update process.
`AThe HTML Reference library contains the Colour codes for the most commomly used colours. It is possible to update these in the same way as other "HTML tags" can be updated. However it is important that if these are updated the "Type" must be either "Colour" or "Color". Without this the other functions that rely on Colours will not operate correctly.
1AThere are 2 ways to open a page:
1. from the Toolbar the "Edit Page" option which will present a list of .htm or .html files in the current directory. Selecting any file will open the file.
2. from the Menu Edit an existing page. (HTML designer will default to the directory where you last saved a page).

CWhen the Tag Wizard is selected one of the options offered is a "Colour Selector".
If this option is selected a "Colour Selector Option Box" is presented.
1. A Grey Scale Colour can be selected by "tapping" on the Grey Scale pallette at the appropriate point. This will detail the appropriate code for the selected colour. Selecting Enter at this point will insert the appropriate colour code into the HTML page.
2. To select a Colour tap on the Colour box and a list of the most commonly used colours will be presented. Select a Colour and "enter". This will detail the appropriate code for the colour selected. Selecting Enter again at this point will insert the appropriate colour code into the HTML page.
3. Alteratively the mix of colours required can be entered in the Red, Green and Blue boxes, in the range 0 to 255. This will produce the appropriate HTML code for the colour mix selected. Selecting Enter at this point will insert the appropriate colour code into the HTML page.
,EThe HTML Reference contains most of the HTML 3.2 tags.
Most of the tags included in the library are generic and are supported by all browsers.
The HTML Reference is classified into several logical areas. It is possible for the user to add to, amend or delete entries or to change and create new categories (types) in this file but it will be necessary to "Update HTML Library" after this to ensure that the Tags are correctly read by HTML Designer..
The Tag library is a Psion Data file which has 3 fields:
1. Tag - This is the name of the tag as will be shown in the Tag selection list
2. Type - This is the category in which the tag will be listed.
3. Code - This is the HTML code that will be inserted into the HTML page if the tag is selected.
To set up a new category (type)
any name can be used but the name MUST NOT CONTAIN ANY SPACES.
If changes are made to the HTML Reference you will be prompted to update the HTML Library when you close the Reference file and return to the main HTML Designer screen. Any new categories will now be shown in the Tag selection when tags are called from the Edit Screen.
Note: If the update HTML library is selected from the menu it will be necessary to close the library before returning to HTML Designer. Closing the library will automatically return you to HTML designer.
AHTML Designer will recognise whether you have either RMR Software's or Neuons's FTP application installed. If you do then the FTP menu item will be available. Selecting this item will start the relevant FTP application.
Note: If an FTP application is started in this way then it is necessary to close the FTP application to return to HTML Designer. Failure to do so will mean that HTML Designer will not respond to any keypresses

:AOn the Series 5 and the Series 7 there is a basic spell function available. This function allows the user to enter a word to check the spelling. If it is incorrect alternative suggestions will be offered. Alternatively if a word is highlighted and the spell checker is called the highlighted word will be checked.
+ATags are accessed either via the menu item or from the Toolbar button. Tags selected, by highlighting the required tag and pressing "Enter" will be pasted directly into the page at the point of the cursor.
Note: in unregistered versions you can only access these tags 3 times in any one session.
spelling. If it is incorrect alternative suggestions will be offered. Alternatively if a word is highlighted and the spell checker is called the highlighted word will be checked.
CThe 'Tag Wizard' is intended to simplify the insertion of HTML code for the more commonly used tags and where necessary to simplify the process of applying the correct paramaters, where appropriate.
Date/Time
In addition the facilty to enter the Date/Time in one of many formats is offered. To insert select the required option and "Enter".
Colour Selector
Additionally there is an option to set a Colour and to insert the Colour Code into the HTML Page.
(See seperate section "Colour Selector for details of the operation of this facility)
Once you have selected the tag you require you may be prompted for any parameters the tag may require. Pressing enter at this point will assume you require no parameters and insert a "bare" tag.
The tag information will be pasted directly into page at the point of the cursor.
Note: Each of the options in the Tag Wizard also have a "HotKey" to enable quick use of the st frequently used items. However, the Tag Wizard list must be showing in order to use these "HotKeys"
ABIn order that "special characters" can be correctly displayed in an HTML page it is necessary to convert them to the correct HTML code. HTML Designer has a conversion feature that will search for any of 44 predefined "special characters" and convert them to the correct HTML code. In addition HTML Designer also allows conversion from the HTML code to the "special characters" for use when editing the page.
The "special characters" defined are:
@Several questions get asked a lot and some known issues:
1. When I preview a page and the Browser is already running it does not show the page but offers me the connection dialog etc.
This happens In those cases where the Browser option has been set to open a Web page on opening. In tese cases it is advisable to launch the Browser before previewing a page. Alternativley, you must press Esc as soon as you see the Connection dialog appear and when you see the "problem op
ening page" dialog appear.
2. When I tap on 'Preview' to preview my web page, EPOC's web browser sometimes loads it and then REloads it again!
This is a 'feature' of the Web application. When asked to display a local page, it still uses its cache mechanism, meaning that even after the initial loading HTML Designer often has to ask it to 'Reload' the page again...
3. I had HTML Designer running and selected it from the list of open files but it will not respond.
In normal cases this is because the last action you took with HTML Designer was to open the HTML Reference library. In this cases the only way to return to HTML Designer is by closing the library.
4. I cannot get the list of Colours to appear when I use the "Set Background" option or the "Colour Selector".
This is probably because you have edited the HTML Reference library and you have included the Colours in a "Type" other than Colours or Colors.
5. When I preview a page in the Browser it does not always change to show the latest page but continues to show the previous page.
This option is only correctly supported on an English language or a German machine. On other machines it may be necessary to use "Reload" from the Web application menu in order to see the changes. This is particularly the case where the Web application is already running when a page is previewed.
6. The "shortcut" menu keys do not respond.
This is a known problem for the Ctrl+i, Ctrl+Shift+i, Ctrl+h & Ctrl+Shift+h keys when the cursor is at the beginning of a document.
7. When using Find or Replace it will not find an occurence immediately next to the cursor.
This is a known problem. Please ensure that the cursor is not immediately in front of some text that you want to find or replace.
AIn order to facilitate quick switching between HTML Designer and the Browser, providing HTML Designer is running, it is possible to call it to the foreground using the "Control+Funtion+H hotkey". In addition it is possible to put HTML Designer in the background , from the main HTML Designer screen by pressing the "Esc" key.
By use of these 2 hotkeys it is possible to swithch very quickly between HTML Designer and the Browser when both are running.

=EYou can select to preview a page from either the menu item or via the Toolbar.
Selecting "Preview Page" from the Toolbar will preview the current page.
If you require to preview an alternative page select the "Preview any page" option from the menu where you can select a page from any directory on the Psion.
Once you have started the Browser leave it running whilst you continue to work on your HTML page. This will speed up the previewing of pages. HTML Designer will remind you if the Browser is still running when you exit.
Note: there are 2 known problems associated with this option:
1. this option is only correctly supported on an English language or a German machine. On other machines it may be necessary to use "Reload" from the Web application menu in order to see the changes. This is particularly the case where the Web application is already running when a page is previewed.
2. This option is only correctly supported, when the Browser is not already running, in those cases where the Browser option has been set to open a file on opening. In those cases where this option has been set to open a Web page on opening it is advisable to launch the Browser before previewing a page. Alternativley, you must press Esc as soon as you see the Connection dialog appear and when you see the "problem opening page" dialog appear.

BSpecial Character Conversion
If it is intended to use a lot of "special characters" then provision has been made to enable automatic conversion of these special characters on loading and saving of a file. This automatic function can be enabled from the preferences menu.
For users who do not use a large number of special characters it will be preferable to switch this automatic conversion off, as it saves time in loading and saving, and rely on the use of manual conversion from the menu as and when required.
