Chapter 7 - Internet

Viewing images

Images within retrieved WWW pages are called inline images. By default, inline images will not be downloaded with the WWW page (see the option Autoload images in the WWW settings), but will be displayed as icons. To download an image, select the icon and press Retrieve image.

Inline images can also be image maps. An inline image map acts like a hyperlink and contains a cursor that can be moved with the arrow keys. When you press Retrieve, the pixel coordinates of the cursor are sent to the URL, and the corre- sponding WWW page is downloaded.

Images that are separate documents and not part of a hypertext document are called external images. When an external image is downloaded, it is viewed separately from the hypertext docu- ment in the image viewer.

There are two external image viewer commands. Copy image copies the external image in the Downloaded files folder with its server-given name, and View allows you to Zoom in and Zoom out. The Image viewer is similar to the Fax viewer (see Chapter 5 "Fax: Received faxes" on page 5-5).

Plug-ins

The Nokia 9000il Communicator is capable of accepting software plug-ins which can increase web browser functionality.
