Please support the shareware idea! ***************************************************************************** What is ScanWWW? ================ ScanWWW alows you to update your webserver or your private homepage. It scans a local directory for new files, which have not yet been transfered to the internet. Then it simply copies them over to your host. It also allows you to get certain files from your host e.g. the counter or a transfer logfile. How does it work? ================= After the update process it sets the archive flag of every file. Yes! You got it! It manages everything by the archive flag! This flag is unset everytime you save a file. If you edit any file and save it again the archive flag will be unset. Please note, that if you copy any external files to your local host directory you have to unset the archive flag (it`s usually already unset!). You can see the archive flag by using the list command or any directory utility (like DirOpus). You`ll see something like ----RWED these are the file attributes. The character in front of the R has to be A for the file to be archived. For example ---ARWED. Consult your AmigaDOS/Workbench manual if you want to know more about attributes. What is a local webserver? ========================== Ever heard this term? It`s just a local image (copy) of all the directories and files on your webserver. It`s that simple! If you use local refers as "../index.html" in your HTML-Files, you will be able to browse through your web localy! The only thing you have to use then are local references. A link to www.your.host/dir/doc.htm has to be . If you want to linik back to your homepage you have to use a parent mark "../". . Then you get from www.your.host/dir/doc.htm to www.your.host/index.html. The same applies to images. (.
