Help Styles

[David Chart]

By using a number of hacks in CSS, I think I have an implementation of the 
help files which looks good in all browsers, although better in newer ones. 
Thanks to Paul Rohr for the link to the hacks.

If anyone is using an older browser, could they put the attached files in 
the same directory and open dialogfind.html in their browser. It should 
have one of two appearances:

A black bar at the top and a black bar at the top left, each with 
navigation links, which don't move when you scroll.

Two horizontal black bars, both with links, one at the top and one at the 
bottom, which scroll with the page.

You shouldn't get vertical bars that scroll with the page, invisible bars, 
or other weird and sucky formatting. You will be missing an image, but that 
doesn't matter.

Thanks.

Title: AbiWord Help: Find Dialog

Help > Menus > Edit > Find Dialog

Find Dialog

Find What:

Type the word you want to find in this box. This is the search string. The command searches for the string of letters or numbers that you type, so if you search for "in", you will find the middle two letters of "find", as well as the word "in".

Match Case

This checkbox determines whether the string you are looking for must have the same combination of capital and lower case letters as the search string. If this box is selected, then "In" will not match "in". If it is not selected, "in" matches "In", "IN", "in", and "iN".

Find Next

Clicking on this button will find the next occurrence of the search string in the document. AbiWord starts searching from the insertion point, and wraps round to the beginning of the document once the end is reached. The search stops when the whole document has been searched once.

Cancel

This button closes the Find dialog.
