Creating Web Sites for the 4630/4630SW IP Telephone

Images

Using images in a Web page is always a concern. For example, a page with many images can slow up downloading. While this is still a concern in the telephone, an image’s size has a much greater effect. Browser and telephone memory is limited. Each image can use a sizable amount of memory, overwhelming the browser. Use an image only if it is essential to a page.

Images also fall into the realm of fixed-width objects. Check all images to verify that they do not cause a horizontal scrollbar to be added. Scale down a browser image by setting the width and height attributes of the <img> tag. Or instead, scale the images when setting up the Web site.

Scaling images during Web site setup avoids forcing the browser to deal with the sizing. Using the width and height attributes scales the image after it is downloaded by the browser. Scaling images during setup also speeds up image downloading. Finally, reducing the size of the image reduces the amount of memory used.

Animated GIF images are a bad idea since they use up quite a bit of memory. Additionally, because of the persistence of the LCD screen, animated images tend to smear in the browser and lose their effectiveness. Therefore, animated GIFs are considered “not supported” with this telephone.

Frames

While contents and document text frames provide a useful method to browse a series of pages, frames also use up real estate, just like scrollbars. Even if the frame decorations are all turned off, a frame containing the majority of the document text suffers the problems discussed in Images—the frame width is smaller, increasing the chances of adding a horizontal scrollbar. Additionally, a single text line has fewer viewable characters, and the page becomes even more difficult to read and comprehend. Using simple top and bottom page or section navigation buttons, can make up for the missing contents frame.

The interaction between frames and scrollbars is another important area of concern. While most browsers manage scrolling within each frame independently, the 4630 Web Access Application only scrolls the entire (single) window. Scrolling by window moves the user's view of the frames as a whole, but does not scroll any of the data in individual frames. Data is likely to be in frames that can never be seen.

Minimal screen real estate and scrolling issues make frames something to avoid.
