Export Web Pages

Choose this output format to create Web Pages (HTML Files). These files can be viewed with any Web browser, like Internet Explorer, or Netscape, and they can be placed into the World Wide Web.

Currently, jose supports two layouts: a static layout that can be used for viewing and printing (see example).
And a dynamic layout that uses JavaScript code to let the user actually replay the game on the Web page (see example).

If you are planning to make HTML pages publicly available, you should make sure that the pages can be viewed on other client systems as well.
For example:

Use only fonts that are widely available. The fonts serif and sans-serif are garantueed to work on any system.
On the other hand, fonts like Garamond will not be available on all systems, and Times New Roman will most likely not be displayed on non-Windows systems.
This is especially true for chess figurines. Your best option is to select Image figurines, below.

TrueType figurines

Controls the display of chess figurines. If this option is selected, figurines will be rendered witht TrueTypes fonts. To display the page correctly, the viewer must have the appropriate fonts installed on his system. For example, if you plan to put the HTML page into the Web, it's better not to use these fonts, but to use image figurines instead. You can also disable figurines and use normal characters instead: see Text Figurines .

Image figurines

If this option is selected, chess figurines will be displayed as small images. These images can be displayed on any viewer's system, regardless of the installed fonts. See also Text Figurines .

The dpi control adjusts the size of the created image files. Enter here the expected resolution of the viewer's screen.

The "dynamic" web page displays a chess board in the upper left corner of the page. To customize this chess board, use and modify the style "Diagram on Web page".

CSS style sheet in separate file

If this options is checked, jose will create a -so called- CSS style sheet that is referenced from the HTML page.
If this option is not checked, the CSS information will be included into the HTML page itself, resulting in slightly larger files.

Location

If Image figurines are selected, jose will create a set of figurine images. By default, these images are placed in the same location as the HTML page. You may, however, choose a fixed location that is reference from the HTML page.
For example, if you like to store your HTML pages in a directory called C:\Internet Files\Chess Games, you could reserve a separate folder for images, say C:\Internet Files\Images.

Click Create Images to create the images immediately. But jose will do this anyway when you save the HTML page.

Save As...

Click Save As.. to save the HTML file. Choose a destination folder and file name.
If the HTML page references figurine images, they will be created in the same location, or in the location specified by Location

Browser Preview

Preview the HTML page in a Web browser.
