Configuring STEP 7 to use a multi-language page structure
The procedure for configuring multi-language user-defined Web pages is similar to the
general process for configuring user-defined Web pages (Page 641). When you have folders
set up for languages, however, you set your HTML directory setting to the folder that
contains the individual language folders. You do not set the HTML directory to be one of the
language folders.
When you select the default HTML page, you navigate into the language folder and select
the HTML page that is to be the start page. When you subsequently generate blocks and
download the blocks to the CPU, the Web server displays the start page in the language
folder that you configured.
F
or example, if the folder structure shown here was at C:\, the
setting for HTML directory would be C:
\html, and if English were to
be the initial page display, you would navigate to en
\langswitch.html
for the default HTML page setting.
