How I Created the Example

1. Created the following 4 folders:
   • Images
   • Images\Shuttle
   • Images\Planets
   • Images\Universe

2. Copied the entire "icons" folder from the ImajSite installation folder into the new "Images" folder
   This created a new "Images\icons" folder.

3. Opened the Images folder, right-clicked in the folder, and selected "New > Make HTML Dir"
   This created a file named "makeindx.bat" containing the line "@mkhtmdir".

4. Opened each of the three subfolders, right-clicked in each folder, and selected "New > Make HTML Set"
   This created a file named "makeindx.bat" containing the line "@mkhtmset".

5. Downloaded images from the http://www.nasa.gov/ web site and saved them to the following folders:
   • Three images of the shuttle to Images\Shuttle
   • Three images of the planets to Images\Planets
   • Three images of the universe to Images\Universe

   After the steps above, the folders contained the following files:

   Folder	Contents
   Images	makeindx.bat
   Images\Shuttle	makeindx.bat, shuttle1.jpg, shuttle2.jpg, shuttle3.jpg
   Images\Planets	makeindx.bat, earth.jpg, moon.jpg, mars.jpg
   Images\Universe	makeindx.bat, universe1.jpg, universe2.jpg, universe3.jpg
   Images\icons	(files from the ImajSite icons folder)

6. Opened an MS-DOS Prompt window, and changed to the Images directory.

7. Typed "maketree 0" at the MS-DOS prompt.

   This command created the following HTML files:

   Folder	New HTML Files
   Images	index.htm
   Images\Shuttle	index.htm, shuttle1.htm, shuttle2.htm, shuttle3.htm
   Images\Planets	index.htm, earth.htm, moon.htm, mars.htm
   Images\Universe	index.htm, universe1.htm, universe2.htm, universe3.htm

   Now I had an entire set of images that I could view from my web browser by simply clicking on the file "index.htm" in the "Images" directory, and following the links.

   I wanted to add some descriptions to the images in the "Universe" folder, so I did the following:

8. Opened the "Images/Universe" folder

9. For each of the three image files, I did the following:
   1. Right-clicked on the image file, and selected "HTML File Info" from the menu.
      A file information box was displayed.
   2. Typed a description in the description field
   3. Pressed OK

10. When I had entered a description for all 3 files, I double clicked on "makeindx.bat". This updated the HTML files (including the index) with the new descriptions.

    Now I could view the Universe slides along with their descriptions.

    I wanted to create a thumbnail for each set, so I did the following:

11. Used an image editing program to create a file called "thumb.jpg" in each of the folders:
    • Images\Shuttle
    • Images\Planets
    • Images\Universe

12. Added the following lines to the "makeindx.bat" file:

    indexBody=BGCOLOR=WHITE
    format=<CENTER><?A>${thumb attr="BORDER=0"}<BR>${title}</A></CENTER>
    columns=3
    

13. Opened an MS-DOS Prompt window, and changed to the Images directory.

14. Typed "maketree 0" at the MS-DOS prompt.
