Quickstart

You have to go through these steps:
  1. Select some text in a html file on the server and add the html comments before and after it: 
    <html>
<head>
<title>Example website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Welcome to my website.</h4>
Last update on 02/31/07.
</body>
</html>
    We want to edit the date, so this becomes: 
    <html>
<head>
<title>Example website</title>
</head>
<body>
<h4>Welcome to my website.</h4>
<!--pre-->Last update on 02/31/07.<!--post--> 
</body>
</html>
    Please remember to upload the file to the server.
  2. Download the ClientGenerator from here. Make shure you have java installed.
  3. Run the ClientGenerator. Enter the FTP login information in the first three fields.
    Then hit the "Check FTP login" button to check if you entered everything correctly.
  4. If everything is fine, press the "Make client program" button. This will write the file yourdomain_client.jar in the same directory as the ClientGenerator is running. Clicking on this file should bring up something like this:

This client looks through all html files he can find on the server, to find the parts commented with <!--pre--> and <!--post-->.

A more sophisticated operation mode loads an xml config file first. This offers much more flexibility as well as speed. This mode is called the "advanced mode".
