Updating AccuTerm 2K2 Internet Edition Web Sites for Windows XP SP2

SP2 for Windows XP has added several security features to Internet Explorer. Because of these changes, the html file created by the AccuTerm 2K2 Internet Connection Designer requires manual changes to be compatible with SP2. A simple one-line change and updated component version number is mandatory, and it is recommended that the access instructions for XP SP2 be added to the html file as well. New lines are shown in BLUE. Use your favorite text editor to update the html file, or you can use a tool like Microsoft Front Page.

Be sure to download the AccuTerm 2K2 Internet Edition upgrade – the new Connection Designer will create updated html files automatically.

Mandatory change: update version number and add “On Error Resume Next” to the first <Script> in the file.

Updated component version number:

Recommended change: add a <Style> tag to the <Head> section, and add <Div> to the body along with a new script which checks for XP SP2 and displays specific access instructions when XP SP2 is detected. Finally, add a paragraph explaining which browser security options may require adjustment to view the page.

     This is a sample INTERNET html file for accessing
     AccuTerm 2K2 Internet Edition. This sample uses the
     atieboot2.cab file located on AccuSoft's web server to
     determine if AccuTerm is already installed. If not,
     the atieins5.cab file on AccuSoft's web site is used
     to install the AccuTerm files.

     To create a link your AccuTerm session, copy the
     following 2 lines and paste into your web page.
