Namo Menu > Preferences – Internet tab

Lets you set Internet options for publishing documents to a remote site.

Internet connection (HTTP)

Use FTP when saving directly to a server

This option specifies which Internet communications protocol to use when saving a document directly to a Web server (you do this by using the Save to URL button in the Save As dialog box or by saving a document that you opened from a URL). If Use FTP when saving directly to a server is enabled, Namo WebEditor will use FTP to upload the document; otherwise it will use HTTP (the protocol normally used by Web browsers). FTP is preferable because you can save the document to a new directory on the server (the new directory will be created automatically). This is not possible using HTTP.

Show HTTP transfer status

Show the transfer progress in a status window when downloading or uploading documents using HTTP.

Offline mode

Normally, when you open a document that contains remote resources (resources, such as images, that reside on a remote server rather than on the local computer), Namo WebEditor tries to load the resources from the server so that they can be displayed in the document window. This can cause problems if your Internet connection is intermittent; if you use a dial-up connection, your computer may try to connect to the Internet. If Offline mode is selected, Namo WebEditor will not try to load these remote resources.

Select DLL

Use NamoNet.DLL

Select this option to have Namo WebEditor use its own built-in DLL (Dynamic Link Library) for all Internet connections. Click Settings to open the NamoNet.DLL Settings dialog box, where you can configure various connection options.

Use Internet Explorer’s DLL (wininet.dll)

Select this option to have Namo WebEditor use Internet Explorer’s DLL for all Internet connections. Click Settings to open the Windows Internet Properties dialog box, where you can configure various connection options.

Publishing

Convert filenames to lowercase when publishing

Select this option to have Namo WebEditor always publish files using lowercase names, except when publishing a site. Since Unix servers are case-sensitive, this option can be useful if all the hyperlinks in the documents use lowercase filenames, but some of the target files use uppercase or mixed-case filenames.

Extensions (button)

Click to edit the list of filename extensions for files that will be treated as text files when publishing.
