Special Considerations for the SAP HTML Viewer

Use

Note the following when you use the SAP HTML Viewer.

  1. If you use background pictures and graphics that only have cosmetic value on the HTML page, you should only use them over the WAN if they are in GIF or JPEG format.

  2. Avoid unnecessary events ( SAPEVENT).

  3. If you have graphics that are necessary for data retrieval, use an event ( SAPEVENT) to load them as and when they are needed.

  4. Try to save your HTML documents on an HTTP server. This enables you to load the data asynchronously, independent of the application server, and to take advantage of the Internet Explorer cache.
