Tools - Quick Start

Quick Start is a tool that allows you to prepare the skeleton of a page in a few steps in the form of headers, META section and BODY section. Creation is done in several steps. First, the window described here appears, then depending on the switch settings, the META and BODY editor windows appear.

You can launch the Quick Start window from Main Menu / Tools / Structure / Quick Start or Main Menu / Tools / Markup Code Wizards / Quick Start, but also from Main Menu / File / New / Tag Code Wizards / Quick Start. Of course also from the Often Used toolbar and the Shift + Ctrl + Q shortcut. The command icon is shown above.

Window appearance

The window consists of several fields that allow you to describe the main parameters of the created document. There are such options as:

Document type declaration
The DTD specifies the syntax of the language used in the document.

Document title
Enter here the title of the document to be displayed in the title bar of the browser window.

Document base address
Enter here the address that the browser will use to read the elements pointed to by relative paths. This is not required.

If you want the Quick Start window to allow you to create additional sections in the document, check the switches:

Include a META section
Check if you want to proceed to defining the parameters of the META section after pressing OK.

Include a BODY section
Check if you want to proceed to specifying BODY tag settings after pressing OK.

Create a FRAMESET frame structure
Check if you want to proceed to defining a frame structure using the Frame Wizard after pressing OK. This option is only available if you select a DOCTYPE suitable for documents with frame definition.

Include XML prologue for XML type documents
Causes the XML prologue <?xml version="1.0" encoding="encoding"?> to be included for XML type documents. This option is available only if you select a DOCTYPE suitable for XML type documents.

When you select these switches, further tools will be launched, with which you will specify further parameters. For more information on these tools, see the help topics dedicated to them.

Create a new document during Quick Start
You can disable this option so that the result of Quick Start replaces the text in the current document instead of creating a new one.

After going through all the steps, a new document will be created and the generated structure will be inserted into it.
