How to Remove Unwanted Links From the default.htm Page

The BlueZone Web-to-Host default.htm page contains a link to the "Default Web Site" and links for eZClear, BlueZone Help, and the Administrator's Guide.  You may not want your End Users to see all of these links.

The HTML code used in this page was designed specifically to make the task of removing unwanted links (and adding additional ones for that matter) very simple.  It is well "commented" and does not require extensive HTML knowledge to perform this task.

Procedure
  1. Navigate to the default.htm page on your web server.

  2. Make a copy of the default.htm file first.

  3. Edit the default.htm page with Notepad.

  4. Just below the top of the page, you will see that there is a note to BlueZone Administrator's with some instructions on how to "comment out" the lines of HTML code that create the links.

<!--

***********************************************************************************************************************

*** BlueZone Administrators *** - This document is best viewed full screen with wordwrap off!

To eliminate any of the links that appear on this page, simply delete or "comment out" the appropriate section

If you scroll down, you will see that each link is noted with a start and end comment

  1. Decide which link or links you want to remove.

For example, if you want to eliminate the Administrator's Guide link from appearing, find the Administrtor's Guide section, and comment out that section.  Remember, an HTML comment starts with <!--  and ends with. -->

<!-- *** Start Administrator's Guide Link *** -->

  <tr>

    <td width="35" height="20">&nbsp;</td>

    <td height="20" colspan="2"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="./docs/admin.chm" target="_blank"><img src="assets/manpoint.jpg" width="45" height="45" align="middle" border="0" alt="Learn"></a>

      <a href="./docs/admin.chm" target="_blank">Launch Administrator's Guide</a>&nbsp;<img src="assets/chm.gif" width="16" height="16"> </font></td>

  </tr>

  <!-- *** End Administrator's Guide Link *** -->

 

  1. To "comment out", add an  "HTML beginning comment" and an "HTML end comment" (shown in red), as shown, and the Administrator's Guide link will disappear from the default.htm page.

<!--
<!-- *** Start Administrator's Guide Link *** -->

  <tr>

    <td width="35" height="20">&nbsp;</td>

    <td height="20" colspan="2"><font size="2" face="Verdana, Arial, Helvetica, sans-serif"><a href="./docs/admin.chm" target="_blank"><img src="assets/manpoint.jpg" width="45" height="45" align="middle" border="0" alt="Learn"></a>

      <a href="./docs/admin.chm" target="_blank">Launch Administrator's Guide</a>&nbsp;<img src="assets/chm.gif" width="16" height="16"> </font></td>

  </tr>

  <!-- *** End Administrator's Guide Link *** -->
-->

 

  1. Repeat the process for any other links that you wish to remove.
