Image Rendering - Images are fetched and draw simultaneously from multiple threads. This allows for a steady updating of new images without having to worry about broken image links or large image files holding up the rest of the page.

 

URL Links - An extended target tag labeled "where" allows you to specify where the next document should be loaded. Target options include a new page outside of the applet, a new page in a new window outside the applet, a frame location on the same page as the applet or the default - load within the applet.

 

Document Caching - Along with images, documents are cashed to disk for fast loading of previously viewed pages.

 

Default Setting - To avoid having to repetitively define highlight colors for mouse-overs, link colors, background colors, etc., for each page, the applet makes available parameters for customizing the basic properties of how the documents it views should look. These defaults can then be overridden by using the standard HTML tags for making certain pages stand out.

 

Page Properties - Use the standard "body" tag to customize each pages top and bottom margins, default text colors, mouse over colors, transition effects, etc. The title of each page which is automatically read from the standard title tag within the document is also displayed in the status bar.
