HTML  documents are structured data content files used predominantly on the internet or in Microsoft .NET applications. A wide variety of digital content is stored in HTML documents.

HTML come in a wide variety of formats and encompass a number of programming languages such as JavaScript, Visual Basic.NET and C# and Active Server Pages (ASP).

Most web sites and Microsoft .NET Applications use HTML in one form or another to provide a rich and visual user experience.

Alchemy CATALYST includes a visual localization environment for the localization, testing and engineering of HTML based content documents.

As Alchemy CATALYST processes HTML and all derivative documents directly, you simply need to insert them  into your Project TTK file in order to localize, test and engineer them.

1.  Create a new Project TTK file by selecting File | New.

2.  Select Insert Files and locate the file Macromedia.htm  and insert it directly into your new Project TTK file.

 

You'll find several HTML documents  in the Samples directory on your Alchemy CATALYST installation CD.

 

3.  There are several ways in which to view HTML documents. To view the strings of your HTML document, select String Mode using the mouse.

 

4.  When you view your HTML documents in String Mode, the element type is graphically displayed in the Mark-up column.  Adjacent to this is the content of each element. Element attributes are also displayed graphically in this Mark-up column.

5.  Due to the highly visual nature of HTML documents, it is generally easier and more efficient to work on them within a visual editing environment. To work on your HTML document in a visual editor, click on WYSIWYG mode from the Project Toolbar using the mouse.
