User Guide - NetObjects Fusion

Chapter 5 Importing Sites and Documents
• HTML coding practices vary, so the contents of the source site pages are
unpredictable. Spaces in .html file names cause import problems.
• NetObjects Fusion does not import server-side imagemaps or manage serverside
resources. If the imported site originally used server resources such as
JavaScripts, CGI scripts, or server-side includes, you must manually recreate
these on your server. If a page contains too much script, you can reference the
HTML. See Chapter 26, “Referencing and Editing External HTML.”
• NetObjects Fusion imports all HTML tables in the site.
• NetObjects Fusion’s import feature supports most of the HTML 3.2
specification. Cascading style sheet coding is removed from pages during
import. Content with no other alignment formatting is placed flush left on its
page.
• When you import a site that was built using HTML frames, NetObjects Fusion
imports the frameset’s content pages as regular pages, and references the
original frameset page as an external HTML page.
Sites created in NetObjects Fusion 7, 7.5, or 8, or NetObjects Fusion 9 generally
import with few problems, but you should be prepared to clean up an imported site
created from another source. Adjust font sizes and styles as needed, and add
NetObjects Fusion navigation bars and banners as appropriate to your design. If a
page does not import the way you expect, check the original source file for
incorrect or nonstandard HTML code.
