URL/HTML/File test

There are some differences in the way this test functions on PC (using the PC Collect module) vs. iPad (using the GS Collect app):

Not all of the tests are technically "tests." For simplicity, that term is used to describe all of the sub-inspection test toolbar buttons.

URL/Contents

[blank]

Enter the URL of the web page to display. Google Docs are supported as valid URLs for both Mobile and PC data collection.

For PC: Enter the full path to display for an Office document, PDF file, etc. To display a file, you must set the DisplayType property to File.

For PC: If using HTML DisplayType, it is the HTML code to display.

For files, specify the full path with the file name. If no path is given, the file is looked for in the User Documents 2 folder. The file name cannot contain spaces.

Note: Windows that display HTML code, HTML files, .pdf files, or webpages (URLs), use elements of Microsoft Internet Explorer security and settings.
