Web link into one word

[XPhoto]

I'm using Xara Web Designer Premium. Is there a way to have other web pages with web address in one basic word instead with special characters?

Welcome to TalkGraphics - Can you give us an example of what you are talking about? Do you mean something like this?

Hi XPhoto,

Do you mean your pages end in something like #xl_xr_page_index instead of pagename.htm?

If so this would mean you have you website set as a Supersite. Go to Utilities > Web Export Options > Conventional site to export all pages individually.

Supersites combine all pages into one file - index.htm and then uses anchors to navigate through the pages. This is needed to achieve the transitional effects unfortunately.

Rob, are you saying Xara was unable to use Javascript to change the presented address (URL) of a current Supersite page to match the <DIV> IDs for that page?

I can create a Supersite with the following:

1. Page 0
   
   1. Page title (HTML <title>): Susan; Susan then appears throught the site as its Title!
   2. Page filename: tom
   3. Xara creates: class="xr_app xr_page0 xr_bgn_0_0_0" & id="xr_page0"
   4. Xara creates: <div id="xr_page_index"></div>; my page is tom not index!
   
   
2. Page 1
   
   1. Page title (HTML: Title): Gladys; Gladys appears nowhere!
   2. Page filename: harriet
   3. Xara creates: class="xr_app xr_page1 xr_bgn_1_0_0" & id="xr_page1"
   4. Xara creates: <div id="xr_page_harriet"></div>

Similarly, the hated "xl_xr_" prefix could be retired.

I believe I advised this when Supersites erupted.
Xara has done half a job with Supersites, Variants and, worse, Supersites with Variants.

Sure, and then what happens when you copy / paste and try to visit a URL where the page doesn't physically exist?

Acorn, this isn't very helpful to the customer (or anyone in that matter). Of course with anything, there is always improvements that can be made to everything and if you have a suggestion, this can be posted through the dear Xara section. As always, we need to encourage replies that are constructive and to the aid of the subject in question. This applies to everyone, especially those in positions of responsibility like moderators.

Kind Regards

Well that's very high handed & insulting Rob. Members of TG aren't puppets of Magix Xara. We aren't employed by Xara. Xara may well pay for the forum hosting but in return it gets a very cheap, quick and helpful 'support' channel. Xara shouldn't think they can demand 100% of blind loyalty from it's TG members nor moderators.

The Dear Xara thread is a place of lost unanswered dreams.
