<li>There is currently <a href="http://mozdev.org/bugs/show_bug.cgi?id=260">a bug</a> which means that user names containing a + character (and presumably other characters requiring URL-escaping) will NOT work. | <li>The "Server" preference should be set to the URL of the annotation server. (For example, the W3C test server is at http://annotest.w3.org/annotations.) |
<li><b>NB</b> when you request the body of an annotation, you will be asked for your user name and password again, this is because the body of the annotation is retrieved by a different mechanism. You can use Password Manager to remember the values here though. |

|
<li>If you are using the W3C test server, then you can probably find some annotations attached to <a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/Annotea/">the Annotea page</a>. |
</ul> |
</ul> |
|
<li>You can also configure: |
|
<ul> |
|
<li>whether the annotations, when you select them, appear in an area in the sidebar, or in a new browser window |
|
<li>whether to (a) try to determine the text that the annotation applies to, and (b) insert an icon in the main browser window to indicate the annotation. |
|
<li>whether to load annotation bodies in an area of the sidebar, or in a new window |
</ul> |
</ul> |
|
<li>For languages, the options are these: |
|
<ul> |
|
<li>You can specify "only view annotations in my preferred language". This only |
|
affects annotations which have a language specified. |
|
<li>You can decide whether or not to view annotations without any language |
|
information specified. (At the moment, I think that Annozilla is the only Annotea client which can specify the language of annotations). |

<h2>Annozilla Annotations Service Installation</h2> |
|
|
|
<p>This is an <b>experimental</b> set of code that may see inclusion in |
|
Annozilla 0.5. You would install this <b>instead</b> of 0.3.5, |
|
not concurrently with it. It is currently tested to work |
|
with versions of Mozilla from 1.0 to 1.2.1. Phoenix |
|
support is not yet included. It adds multiple server support, local |
|
server support, enhanced icon insertion, and icon insertion without |
|
running the sidebar, among other things.</p> |
|
|
|
<ul> |
|
<li>First <a href="javascript:installPackages({'Annozilla alpha |
|
test':'annozillaAlpha.xpi', 'Annotations |
|
Service':'annotations.xpi', 'XPointerLib |
|
0.4':'http://xpointerlib.mozdev.org/xpointerlib.xpi'});">install the necessary packages</a>.</li> |
|
<li>Please then <b>restart your browser</b> and return to this page to continue |
|
installation.</li> |
|
<li>Now go to the preferences window (Edit -> Preferences -> |
|
Annozilla). The Viewing Preferences will give you |
|
two options for viewing annotations. You may view |
|
annotations in the Annozilla sidebar tab <b>AND/OR</b> view them as |
|
icons inserted into your browser window.</li> |
|
<li>Next, set up your Server Preferences. You will need to have an account with an annotation server. |
|
To try the W3C test server, get an account at <a |
|
href="http://annotest.w3.org/access">http://annotest.w3.org/access</a> You may also download or install your own server. See <a href="http://www.w3.org/2001/Annotea/">the Annotea page</a> for more information.</li> |
|
</ul> |
|
|
|
<p>For the curious, versioning is a little dicey on this product, as 0.4 is still in |
|
the works as well. A brief timeline: |
|
<ul> |
|
<li>02/07/2003 -- updated prerelease with enhanced icon support</li> |
|
<li>01/31/2003 -- initial prerelease</li> |
|
</ul> |
|
