HTML Executable is a powerful and versatile HTML compiler that turns websites (or any group of HTML pages) into single executable files which are real stand-alone Windows applications.
You can select between three "classes" of executable files to create: Self-Extracting, featuring a built-in HTML Viewer or acting as a custom Web browser (based on Internet Explorer). All source files (HTML, graphics, media...) are strongly compressed in order to make compact executable files useful for distribution or archiving purposes.
Everything of the compiled website program can then be customized according to your needs: apply skins to the user interface; use scripting to control its behavior; protect your pages using security profiles to create trial ebooks and restrict user rights; display splash screens or messages; add a table of contents, a search engine and a favorite manager; change the icon, the version information of your .exe files and digitally sign them. You can almost compile any website even using DHTML, JavaScript, HEScript or simple Java applet.
HTML Executable is finally mostly wizard-driven: its intuitive interface lets both inexperienced and advanced users get the most of their first ever executable website.
Use HTML Executable to package up your websites, build help files and В· tutorials in HTML format, create user-attractive ebooks, electronic brochures or courses, distribute your commercial, professional or private web pages, share HTML projects, or archive your websites
What's New in This Release:
В· New publication type: Internet Explorer-based publications (a.k.a. IE Browser publications) which are similar to stand-alone HTML Viewer publications, except that they use the same engine as Microsoft Internet Explorer. Consequently you can use all features supported by IE: DHTML, JavaScript, full CSS support, Flash SWF, online connection, even Java applets (limited support: please see the help topic "Using Java applets"
