Choose a file extension from the Extension pop-up menu or enter a new one.
Choose Include HTML Comments to include comments regarding where to copy and paste
in the HTML. This option is recommended if your document contains interactive elements
such as buttons, behaviors, or rollover images. HTML comments help you determine which
parts of the code to copy and paste.
Choose Lowercase File Name to make the name of the HTML file and the associated image
files lowercase on export.
Note: This will not lowercase the HTML file's extension if an uppercase extension was selected
in the Extension pop-up menu.
Choose an associated application from the File Creator pop-up menu (Macintosh). When
you double-click the exported HTML file on your hard disk, it automatically opens in the

Choose a formula for auto-naming slices in the Slice Auto-Naming pop-up menus. You can
use the default settings, or choose your own options.
Note: Use caution when choosing None as a menu option for slice auto-naming. If you choose
None as the option for any of the first three menus, Fireworks exports slice files that overwrite
one another, resulting in a single exported graphic and a table that displays this graphic in
every cell.
Enter text in the Alternate Image Description text box. This alt text appears in place of all
images while they are downloading from the web and in place of any images that fail to
download. In some browsers it may also appear as a tooltip when the pointer passes over the
image. This is also an aid for vision-impaired web users.
Choose Multiple Nav Bar HTML Pages when exporting a navigation bar that links several
pages together. When this option is chosen, Fireworks exports additional pages for each
button in the navigation bar.
Choose UTF-8 Encoding if your document displays characters from multiple character sets.
For more information about UTF-8 encoding, see
