Tree MDI
-
Version
3.65
Tree MDI is a GRML web browser that browses files and
web pages. It reads and saves GRML, CSV or character-
delimited formats. As an MDI web browser, it supports
multiple browser windows. Each browser window has its
own content and navigation history.
A browser window has two parts, a form and a view. The
form sends web requests and the view displays results.
File and web pages use GRML, CSV or character-
delimited formats. Only GRML uses a form, but all
formats use a view.
The form has input controls for user input. They are
edit boxes, drop-down boxes, buttons, etc. The input
from these controls is sent when a form is submitted.
The form uses a submit control to determine the
destination for a submitted request. Tree MDI is a
single-form web browser. That means it uses, at most,
one form for each web page.
The view displays results. It uses columns to define
how many items are in a result.These results are
displayed in Tree MDI using a tree control. The tree
control displays the first result item as a parent and
all other result items as children of this parent. By
clicking the '+' next to the parent item, the child
items are displayed.
When file or web page results are first displayed in
Tree MDI, only the first item of the result is
visible. If a result item has a hyperlink, a double-
click sends a file or web page request. Use the 'Send
To' menu item to send the link to another application.
Editing is only used with child items. While the first
item of a result is displayed, it is not editable.
Click the '+' next to the item, and the child items
appear. These are editable. Select an item and go to
the Details window. Edit the item there and select
another item to submit the changes.
The browser windows all reside in the workspace. The
workspace supports none, one, or many browser windows.
The Workspace Explorer browses the workspace. The
History window displays submitted file and web page
requests. Use the Details window to edit result items.
