Surf Mode

The surf mode determines where the resources are loaded from internet or cache archive.

Offline

Pages are requested with their URL from the local cache archive in the offline mode.

Online

Online mode corresponds with normal browsing.

MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant Professional:

Available files in the cache archive can be re-used for acceleration.

Cache Archive

Define folder

The whole MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistants cache consists of folders (specified by topics) where the resources of the internet can be saved. The cache archive can get arbitrarily large (except for restrictions of the operating system). It is necessary to use one cache archive at least.

Surf Set / Cache Archive

The left column lists the enabled cache archives of the displayed surf set. All other cache archives are listed in the right column.

With the following buttons you can manage the archives:

  • Add ....
    Adds a further folder to enabled cache archives.
  • >> or <<
    Moves active to deactive cache archive or reversed.
  • Delete
    Deletes a disabled cache archive displayed in grey.
    The folder and the contained resources aren't deleted in the file system.

A folder must have read & write access in the column of active cache archives. All other folders have only read access. When you are surfing online the HTML pages and other resources are saved in the folder with write access.

In the example above, four folders are given: The folder /cache/ and three folders specified by subject (hobby, finance, job). By exchanging the entries you can compile any number of specific folders, which can also be stored on another storage device, like CD ROM.

MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant Professional:

If you assign several topic specific surf sets with only one directory, then you can select between these topics by browsing.

Moreover, the MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant also can be started from a CD ROM. It is not necessary to install the program on a hard disk! Only a virtual machine must have been installed on the computer or in the network.

Note:
  • You reach a higher flexibility by the separation from program folder and cache archive as well as use of several archives. The correct processing of very long URLs in addition requires, that at least 230 characters can be used for the path and the file name with the MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant. Therefore use only folders for the cache archives which are located on partition level (Root), please. The maximum path name for this shouldn't be greater than 20 characters.

MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant Professional:

Very long URLs are often used for advertising. You also can be filter the advertising with Surf Set/URL Filter.

  • Delete of files with long pathnames
    Archives don't correspond to the above for requirement perhaps with the Microsoft File Explorer deleting isn't possible. You then must use the DOS-Console to delete these files. You, for example, delete an archived domain with the following commands:

    At first you change to the cache archives concerned, e.g. MM3-WebAssistantPrivate\cache\
    cd MM3-WebAssistantPrivate\cache\

    Then you delete the domain, e.q. xxx

    rmdir xxx /s /q

    with:
    xxx - Domain to be deleted
    /s - Delete all included files and folders
    /q - Without confirmation
  • One cache archive may not contain any other cache archives!
    For example the following structure should be avoided:

    1. Archive: /cache/
    2. Archive: /cache/Hobby/

Store resources

At activation of the option Store resources the files are stored in the directory with access to write.

In addition the download of a file is stopped.
This is carried out if you stop the download process in the browser.
Note: The parts which are not download are not available by offline surfing.

Marker

Marking locally available URL

All links are marked green to available resources in the cache archive during surfing. So you get a fast summary of all resources, are already archived and thus locally available.

Shows home page of MM3Tools without and with the marking.

The marking can be used in the mode offline and in the mode online. The marking per default is green or can be defined with a stylesheet.

Offline Mode

Only the locally available resources can be shown in this mode. Therefore the markings simplify surfing considerably.
Are you interested in the contents of not available resources? Change to the on-line mode.

MM3-WebAssistantWebAssistant Professional:

Not available resources can be collected in a list at first.

Online Mode

The marking shows to you, which resources you have already visited. This completes the history function of the browser.

Highlighting changes in the online mode

If you are interested in the differences in a page since the last archiving, then you activate this function. When surfing in the on-line mode newly available texts are then marked. The marking per default is blue or can be defined over a style sheet.
