Attribute Case
Specifies the capitalization for attributes.
Indent
Specifies a method for indenting lines of code: using the authoring application’s tab settings, using a specified
number of spaces, or using no indention.
Line Endings
Specifies a platform for line ending compatibility.
Encoding
Specifies a default character encoding for the web page.
Include Comments
Adds explanatory comments to the HTML code.
Always Add Alt Attribute
Adds the ALT attribute to IMG elements to comply with government web accessibility
standards.
Always Quote Attributes
Places quotation marks around all tag attributes. Placing quotation marks around attributes
is required for compatibility with certain early browsers and for strict HTML compliance. However, always quoting
attributes is not recommended. Quotation marks are used when necessary to comply with most browsers if this option
is deselected.
Close All Tags
Adds close tags for all HTML elements in the file for XHTML compliance.
Include Zero Margins On Body Tag
Removes default internal margins in a browser window. Adds marginwidth,
marginheight, leftmargin, and topmargin tags with values of zero to the body tag.
Slice output options
You can set the following options in the Slices set:
Generate Table
Aligns slices using an HTML
table rather than a cascading stylesheet.
Empty Cells
Specifies how empty slices are converted to table cells. Select GIF, IMG W&H to use a 1-pixel GIF with
width and height values specified on the IMG tag. Select GIF, TD W&H to use a 1-pixel GIF with width and height
values specified on the TD tag. Select NoWrap, TD W&H to place a nonstandard NoWrap attribute on the table data
and also place width and height values specified on the TD tags.
TD W&H
Specifies when to include width and height attributes for table data: Always, Never, or Auto (the
recommended setting).
Spacer Cells
Specifies when to add one row and one column of empty spacer cells around the generated table: Auto
(the recommended setting), Auto (Bottom), Always, Always (Bottom), or Never. For table layouts in which slice
boundaries do not align, adding spacer cells can prevent the table from breaking apart in some browsers.
Generate CSS
Generates a cascading stylesheet rather than an HTML table.
Referenced
Specifies how slice positions are referenced in the HTML file when using CSS:
•
By ID
Positions each slice using styles that are referenced by a unique ID.
•
Inline
Includes style elements in the declaration of the block element
•
By Class
Positions each slice using classes that are referenced by a unique ID.
Default Slice Naming
Choose elements from the pop-up menus or enter text into the fields to create default names for
slices. Elements include the document name, the word slice, numbers or letters designating slices or rollover states, the
slice creation date, punctuation, or none.
