Smart Update

About the Web Publisher SmartUpdate for Communicator Users

You can install the Web Publisher applet on your own local computer. The local Web Publisher launches more quickly than the server-based version, which must be downloaded from the server during the launch process.

The Composer plug-in enhances Netscape Composer so that you can seamlessly edit and publish documents that are stored on a remote server and lets you lock and unlock Web Publisher files and folders from your desktop without having to launch the Web Publisher applet.


Set the default version of the Web Publisher



The next time you launch Web Publisher from the Web Publisher Home Page, this is the version that will be used.
