iPublish

iPublish allows you to publish some or all of your notes as a web page on the Internet.

You can publish your notes using a FTP account or a .Mac account (iDisk).

To publish a note or a folder, select it in iNotePad's list of notes, then select the File > iPublish menu item. If no item is selected when you use choose "iPublish", all the notes will be published.

Then, specify the following FTP server parameters:

• Server: The address of your FTP server. If you are using a .Mac account, use the following address: idisk.mac.com
• User: Provide your login username
• Password: Provide your login password
• Directory: The directory where you want to save the exported HTML file. This directory must already exist on the specified server (Mac OS X 10.2 and 10.3). If you are using a .Mac account, leave this field empty.
• File Name: The name of the HTML file to be created
• Page title: The title of the HTML page
• If you check Add password to keychain, the above login information will be remembered for future iPublish attempts
• Template: Choose the template used to generate the HTML file. Read here about how to build custom templates.
• Encoding: The character set that will be used to generate the HTML file. Most users should use "Standard (US-ASCII)". Any non-ASCII characters will be exported as HTML entities ("é" = "é", etc.)
• Publish: Select whether to publish just the selected items(s), or the entire database.

When you click "Publish", iNotePad will generate an HTML file containing your notes, then it will upload this file to the FTP server (or iDisk) specified above.

Hint: You should always verify the results of iPublish in a web browser. Also, be aware that your published notes will be available to anyone, unless your Web server has a method of limiting access.

If you click "Save", the HTML file will be saved on your hard disk instead of being published on Internet.
