NCSA Mosaic for Microsoft Windows User's Guide

Other Configuration Issues

This section provides information regarding other system and NCSA Mosaic configuration issues that you may have to resolve.

Help for Slow Network Connections

If your network connection is slow or you find yourself retrieving documents from slow or distant servers, you can set NCSA Mosaic so that it transfers only the text of a document; inline images can then be brought over when you want them.

The Display Inline Images entry on the Options menu will show the current NCSA Mosaic setting. A checkmark before Display Inline Images means inline images are automatically brought over and displayed; no checkmark means they are not displayed unless you specifically ask for them. Pull down the Options menu, drag the cursor to Display Inline Images, and release the mouse button to change the setting.
