Bookmarks

Here are some ideas, these are crude implementations but will work with 4.00/4.01 provided you do not have spaces in the file names of your html pages, and they don't handle frames well...

Make a text file called start.as, in your source folder.  Containing:

INIREAD('sv1','ans2000.ini','{esbn}','Bookmark{compilerversion}')
STRREPLACE('sv1','{sv1}','/',' ')
STRLASTWORD('sv1','{sv1}')
STRFIND('sv2','{sv1}','.htm')
SET('sv3',0)
IF({sv2}<>0)
FILEEXIST('sv3','{ebook}\{sv1}')
IF({sv3})
NAVIGATE('{sv1}')
ENDIF
ENDIF

Make a text file called exit.as in your source folder containing:

SET('sv1','{ebookurl}')
STRFIND('sv2','{sv1}','__')
IF({sv2}=0)
INIWRITE('{sv1}','ans2000.ini','{esbn}','Bookmark{compilerversion}')
ENDIF

TO MAKE E-BOOK OPEN ON LAST PAGE

Go to Edit Add-Ins,

in OnStart
#!start.as

in OnExit
#!exit.as

TO MAKE A SORT OF BOOK MARK SYSTEM (V. SIMPLE)

Go to Edit Add-Ins,

in OnStart
#!start.as

in OnExit - make it blank

on each html page put the following

Thanks Sunil

I'm working on two e-books, one is finished, another in development. In the second one I am using frames. Do you have any way of bookmarking frames or an exit start alternative for frames??
Would really appreciate it.

Thank you,

To see what I mean

In Internet Explorer go to a framed site.  Navigate to an internal page. Bookmark

Now close IE, and go to Favorites, and you end up back on the start page.  The problem is the bookmark marks the frameset not the individual frame contents.

What you would need to do to work round this is horrid - but doable.  Create a extra "dummy" frameset file for each possible combination of frames.  Use TARGET=_top in all the links and inside of updating individual frames always go via one of these framesets.
