Site Map View

The applet's Site Map view shows a hierarchial tree view of the site, starting from the root page. If you are indexing a web site, the arcs between nodes in the tree represent HTML links between the respective pages. If you are indexing a filesystem directory whose files have no links between them, then the site map will show the directory structure of the pages indexed.

As shown in the screen snapshot below, the Site Map view may be configured to show different fields, such as the page title, size, address, or last modified date. This is configurable using the MAPHEADERS applet parameter.

The Site Map's icons change depending on the object they represent. The following list explains the nature of each node type:

• Represents the logical roots of a "conglomerate" site, composed of multiple smaller sites using the INDEXLOCATION applet parameter.
• Represents a document with no links to other pages.
• Represents an anchor within a document. Clicking on the anchor goes to the referenced section of the enclosing document.
• Represents a document with both links to other pages and anchor links. The sub-pages and anchors may be viewed by double clicking on the folder, or clicking the + button to open up the sub-tree.
• Represents a document with anchors but no links to other pages. Opening such a folder presents a list of its anchors.

By selecting any line in the tree, the referenced page will be automatically loaded in the web browser.
