Nvu Basics |
Using View Tabs |
Back to Introduction to Nvu Home
| The View Tabs area at the bottom of the Nvu interface allow you to view four different versions of the HTML file on which you are working. Each View Tab allows you to continue working on your document, but displays varying levels of HTML tags (and tag icons). For this tutorial, you won't need to switch the editing mode from the default view of Normal. |
 |
 Normal:
Choose this view to see how the document will look while you are creating
it. This view most simulates working in a Microsoft Word environment. This
tutorial will deal with working in this environment. The image to the left
shows what a page looks like in Normal View. |
 |
 HTML Tags:
Choose this view to show all HTML tag icons. |
 |
 <HTML>
Source: Choose this view to edit the document as unformatted HTML source
code. When you save the document, the Normal view reappears. |
 |
 Preview: Choose
this view to display and edit the document exactly as it would appear in
a browser window, except that links and JavaScript functions will not be
active. To display thepage in its active state, click the Browse button
on the Button Toolbar to launch and load the page into your default browser
window. |
