HTMLgen Documentation

This document describes the use and function of the MicroEMACS macro "htmlgen". The purpose of this macro is to provide assistance to the HTML author by automatically generating template sections of HTML pages. The template sections consist of things such as the beginning or header of a page, the last or footer of a page, and various components in between. The list of sections currently generated is as follows:

Generate Header with javascript
Import HTML Header File
Generate HTML Frame Page
Import HTML Frame Header file
Insert Standard HTML Header ~n"tag
Insert Header TAG using FONT and BOLD tags
Insert a Horizontal Rule created using a table
Insert a Standard Horizontal Rule
Generate a Table with caption, header, and data sections
Generate a Table with data section only
Create an Ordered or Unordered List
Create a Definition List
Import a file
Import a Preformatted file
Insert a Literal less than sign
Insert a Literal greater than sign
Insert Tri-segmented Title Bar
Generate a Footer, Long version with contact info
Generate a Footer, Contact info only

DESCRIPTION OF MACROS

Generate Header with JavaScript

Keys

F1

Control-X 1: F1; Control-X 1

This macro generates the top section of an HTML page and asks the user three questions. Those questions are:

Title of this page?
Page Author's Name?
Author's E-mail Address?

The answers that the user provides are automatically inserted into the generated HTML code. An example of the HTML code follows:


	<HTML>
	
	<!-- Begin head -->
	<HEAD>
	<META Http-Equiv="Content-Type" Content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
	<META Name="Author" content="Your Name Here">
	<META Name="Description" content="">
	<META Name="KeyWords" content="">
	<TITLE>Your Title Here</TITLE>
	<LINK Rev="made" Href="mailto:Your@E-mail.Here">
	
	<!-- Begin javascript_head -->
	<SCRIPT Language="javascript">
	<!-- Hide from browsers
	//  Unhide from browsers  -->
	</SCRIPT>
	<!-- End javascript_head -->
	
	</HEAD>
	<!-- End head -->
	
	<!-- Begin body -->
	<BODY Bgcolor="white" Text="black" Link="blue" Vlink="red" Alink="yellow">
	<BASEFONT Size="4">
	<!-- End body -->
	
	<A Name="#top">
	
	<!-- Begin text area -->

There are a number comments scattered throughout the HTML code. These comments signify the beginning and end of various code segments. The ultimate purpose of these comments will be discussed later.

Import HTML Header File

KEYS

Shift-F1
Control-X !: Shift-F1
Control-X !

This macro inserts a predefined text file into the current buffer and assumes the text file contains HTML code. The default file name for the text file is "/usr/local/html/head.html". This file must be created by the user and should contain HTML code to generate the top portion or header of an HTML document.

This macro will also ask the user three questions. Those questions are:

Title of this page?
Page Author's Name?
Author's E-mail Address?

The answers that the user provides can be automatically inserted into the HTML code by the replacement of three variables. Those variables are:

[[PAGETITLE]]
[[AUTHOR]]
[[EMAIL]]

When the user creates the file "/usr/local/html/head.html", he/she can insert the above variables into the HTML code (including the double brackets). The variables will be replaced by the answers provided by the user.

Generate HTML Frame Page

KEYS

F2
Control-X 2: F2
Control-X 2

This macro generates a complete HTML Frame page and asks the user several questions. Those questions are:

Title of this page?
Page Author's Name?
Author's E-mail Address?
Columns w/ Rows or Rows w/ Columns (C/R)?
How many columns?
How many rows in column #?
How many rows?
How many columns in row #?

The Page title, Author's name, and E-mail address are automatically inserted into the generated HTML code. The user must determine the orientation of the frames page by selecting "Columns w/ Rows" (C) or "Rows w/ Columns" (R).

By selecting "C", the page will be divided into a user defined number of columns, meaning that the columns extend from the top to the bottom of the browser window. Each column may then be subdivided into any number of rows. The default number of rows is "1".

By selecting "R", the page will be divided into a user defined number of rows, each row extending from the left edge to the right edge of the browser window. Each row may then be subdivided into any number of columns. The default number of columns is "1".

An example of the HTML code follows:


	<HTML>
	
	<!-- Begin head -->
	<HEAD>
	<META Http-Equiv="Content-Type" Content="text/html; charset=iso-8859-1">
	<META Name="Author" content="Your Name Here">

Import HTML Frame Page File

KEYS

Shift-F2
Control-X @: Shift-F2
Control-X @

This macro inserts a predefined text file into the current buffer and assumes the text file contains an HTML Frame page. This file must be created by the user and should contain a generic HTML Frame page which can be modified for each specific implementation.

This macro will ask the user the following question:

Import Frame Header File Name (" /usr/local/html/framehead.html ")?

The answer to this question should be the full path location of the file to be used as the Frames page template. The default file name is "/usr/local/html/framehead.html".

Insert Standard HTML Header TAG

KEYS

F3
Control-X 3: F3
Control-X 3
VARIABLES

%headercolor: %headercolor

This macro generates a Title or Header line of text using the <H#></#H> TAGS. Three questions are asked of the user, those questions are:

Header Size (1,2,3,4,5,6)?
Header Text?
Center the Header (Y/N)?

The answers to the above questions are used to generate an HTML header TAG. An Example follows:

Insert Your Header Text Here

The code which generated the above example follows:


	<CENTER>
	<H2><FONT Color="darkblue">Insert Your Header Text Here</FONT></H2>
	</CENTER>

The Header TAG size can range from 1 to 6, 1 being the largest and 6 being the smallest. The number entered here for the example code was 1. The Header TAG text is inserted between the <H1></H1> TAGS. And answering "Y" to the centering question, inserts the "CENTER" tags. Finally, the <FONT> tags are inserted to change the color of the Header TAG text. The text color is defined in the variables section of the macro and uses the variable name "%headercolor".

Insert Header TAG using FONT and BOLD Tags

KEYS

Shift-F3
Control-X #: Shift-F3
Control-X #
VARIABLES

%headercolor: %headercolor

This macro generates a Title or Header line of text, but rather than using the <H#></#H> tags, it uses <FONT></FONT> TAGS. Three questions are asked of the user, those questions are:

Header Size (1,2,3,4,5,6)?
Header Text?
Center the Header (Y/N)?

The answers to the above questions are used to generate an HTML header TAG. An example follows:

Insert Your Header Text Here

The code which generated the above example follows:


	<CENTER>
	<B><FONT Size="6" Color="darkblue">Insert Your Header Text Here</FONT></B>
	</CENTER>

The Header TAG size can range from 1 to 6, 1 being the largest and 6 being the smallest. The number entered here by the user is recalculated to be used by the <FONT> tag, where 7 is the largest and 1 is the smallest. In the above example, the header size selected was 1. The resultant size for use in the <FONT> tag is 7.

Answering "Y" to the centering question, inserts the "CENTER" tags. Finally, the Color attribute of the <FONT> tag is inserted to change the color of the Header TAG text. The text color is defined in the variables section of the macro and uses the variable name "%headercolor".

Insert a Horizontal Rule Created using a Table

KEYS

F4
Control-X 4: F4
Control-X 4
VARIABLES

%hrcolor
%hrsize: %hrcolor
%hrsize

This macro generates a Horizontal Rule using a single cell table where the background and text colors of the cell are defined by the macro variable %hrcolor. The table extends the width of the browser window. An example horizontal rule follows:

The code which generated the above example follows:


	<!-- Begin horizontal rule -->
	<CENTER>
	<P>
	<TABLE Border="0" Width="100%" Cellspacing="0" Cellpadding="0">
	  <TR>
	    <TD Bgcolor="red">
	      <FONT Size="1" Color="red">

After the table is generated the user is expected to fill in the various cells with the desired information. Each data cell is identified by a comment line. There are a number of macro variables used by the table macro. They may all be modified to suit the user.

Create an Ordered or Unordered List

KEYS

F6
Control-X 6: F6
Control-X 6

This macro generates an ordered or unordered list of items according to the following user defined parameters:

Ordered or Unordered List (O/U)?
How many rows?
Center the List (Y/N)?

The user selects either an Ordered (O) or Unordered (U) list, enters the number of items or rows in the list, and whether or not to center the list on the page. Once the HTML code is generated, the user can edit each item or list to insert their text.

Example for an unordered list with 5 rows, not centered on the page follows:

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
Item 5

The HTML code which generated the above example follows:


	<P>
	<UL>
	    <LI> Item 1
	    <LI> Item 2
	    <LI> Item 3
	    <LI> Item 4
	    <LI> Item 5
	</UL>
	</P>

The following is an example of an ordered list with 7 rows, centered on the page:

Item 1
Item 2
Item 3
Item 4
Item 5
Item 6
Item 7

The HTML code which generated the above example follows:


	<P>
	<CENTER>
	<TABLE Border="0">
	  <P>
	    <TR Rowspan="1">
	        <TD Align="left" Valign="middle" Colspan="1">
	            <FONT Size="4" Color="black">
	                <OL>
	                    <LI> Item 1
	                    <LI> Item 2
	                    <LI> Item 3
	                    <LI> Item 4
	                    <LI> Item 5
	                    <LI> Item 6
	                    <LI> Item 7
	                </OL>
	            </FONT>
	        </TD>
	    </TR>
	  </P>
	</TABLE>
	</CENTER>
	</P>

Notice that the ordered list is centered on the page using a single cell table. The list is generated within the table cell and the table is then centered.

Create Terms as Links (Y/N)?
Center the List (Y/N)?

The user enters the number of terms, whether or not to create the terms as hyperlinks, and whether or not to center the list. Once the HTML code is generated, the user can edit each term and data area insert their text.

An Example definition list with 3 terms created as hyperlinks, not centered on the page follows:

Term 1
This is an explanation of term 1: This is an explanation of term 1
Term 2
This is an explanation of term 2: This is an explanation of term 2
Term 3
This is an explanation of term 3: This is an explanation of term 3

The HTML code which generated the above example follows:


	<P>
	<DL>
	    <P>
	    <DT><B><LI><FONT Size="4" Color="black"><A Href="term1.html">Term 1</A></FONT></B>
	        <DD><I><FONT Size="3" Color="black">
	This is an explanation of term 1
	            </FONT></I>
	        </DD>
	    </DT>
	    </P>
	    <P>
	    <DT><B><LI><FONT Size="4" Color="black"><A Href="term2.html">Term 2</A></FONT></B>
	        <DD><I><FONT Size="3" Color="black">
	This is an explanation of term 2
	            </FONT></I>
	        </DD>
	    </DT>
	    </P>
	    <P>
	    <DT><B><LI><FONT Size="4" Color="black"><A Href="term3.html">Term 3</A></FONT></B>
	        <DD><I><FONT Size="3" Color="black">
	This is an explanation of term 3
	            </FONT></I>
	        </DD>
	    </DT>
	    </P>
	</DL>
	</P>

As with the ordered and unordered lists, when the user elects to center the definition list on the page, the list is centered using a single cell table. The list is generated within the table cell and the table is then centered.
