Generating a web site
When you choose the Web site
generation command from the Reports menu, DMB displays the
following window:
The Scope and Selection controls enable you to specify the
organization or league for which you'd like to generate the
site.
The controls in the Report groups to
include box determine the web pages that are generated.
If you want the site to include organization reports (such as
organization-wide standings and leader boards), check the
Organization reports box and use the
adjacent drop-down list to choose a report group that identifies
the organization reports to be generated.
If you want the site to include league reports (such as
standings, leader boards, and injury logs), check the League reports box and use the adjacent drop-down
list to choose a report group that identifies the league reports to
be generated.
If you want to include one or more reports for each team, check
the Team reports box and use the adjacent
drop-down list to choose a report group that identifies the team
reports to be generated.
If you want any game results or game log reports to be linked to
the related boxscores, scoresheets, and game logs, check the
Boxscore files box. These links are
generated only if boxscores, scoresheets, and/or game log reports
were saved at the time the games were played.
Use the Write files to control to
enter a path to the folder into which the generated HTML files are
to be placed. You can type the path or click on the ellipsis button
to select a folder graphically.
NOTE: If you want to
create a new folder in which to store web files, you must type in a
path. Clicking on the ellipsis to browse will only allow you select
a folder that was previously created.
Use the Top-level page name field to
name the file that acts as your web site's index. Typically, this
file is called index.htm.
Fill out the HTML
file ext box to choose the extension
(typically .htm or .html) to use for all web reports.
The formatting of the HTML files is determined by a cascading
style sheet that comes with DMB and which is automatically copied
into the folder into which your files are saved. If you are
comfortable with HTML coding, you can modify this style sheet to
use your own fonts and colors.
