Customizing the web interface

Top  Previous  Next

The JSCAPE MFT Server Web Gateway user interface may be easily customized to match the language and look and feel of your organization.

 

Setting login page properties

 

When connecting to the JSCAPE MFT Server Web Gateway the server automatically detects the clients browser language settings and loads the appropriate language file.  If a matching language file cannot be found then the "default" language file is used.  The logo and text for the login page may be changed by going to File > Settings > Web and clicking on the Resources tab.

Use Flash upload component - If enabled the Macromedia Flash plug-in will be used for performing file uploads when using HTML user interface.  This plug-in is useful in that the select files dialog allows users to select more than one file at a time for upload whereas the browser select file dialog only allows one file to be selected at a time

 

Note: The Macromedia Flash plugin can be used with both HTTP and HTTPS protocols.  However, when using HTTPS the server certificate MUST be issued by a trusted CA (certificate authority) as self-signed certificates are not recognized by Macromedia Flash.  See Obtaining a trusted certificate for details.
