| 68 | Access the "Mirror" view by clicking its tab. The top half of the screen shows the downloading controls. The bottom half is initially empty, but will show a list of pending and completed downloading jobs.
|

| 69 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 70 | Files are downloaded into a folder in the workspace called "Downloaded Files" (only present when mirroring is enabled), and can be used in all
|
|---|
| 71 | collections built with the Librarian Interface. Files in this area are named by their full web
|
|---|
| 72 | URL. A new folder is created for each host, followed by others for each part
|
|---|
| 73 | of the path. This ensures that each file is distinct.
|
|---|
| 74 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 75 | Use the first of the download configuration controls, "Source URL", to enter the URL of a
|
|---|
| 76 | target resource. Use the "Download Depth" control to limit how many
|
|---|
| 77 | hyperlinks to follow when downloading: Set this to 0 to download a single web page; set it to 1 to download a page and all the pages it points to. The depth limit is
|
|---|
| 78 | ignored when downloading media other than html pages. Next, there are several checkbox controls which can be set to turn on the specified feature for a specific download. Once the configuration is set up, click "Download" to start the new download job. There are two other button controls: "Preferences", which links to the connection section of the Preferences where proxy settings can be edited; and "Clear Cache", which deletes all previously downloaded files.
|
|---|
| 79 | <p></p>
|
|---|
| 80 | The download list has an entry for each web page download. Each entry has a text region that gives details of the task along with a progress bar showing current activity. Three buttons appear to the left of each entry. "Pause" is used for pausing a currently downloading task. "View Log" opens a window showing the download log file. "Close" terminates the download and removes the task from the list.

| 84 | The <a href="preferences.htm#preferences">Preferences section</a> describes how to establish an Internet connection
|
|---|
| 85 | via a proxy. If authentication is needed, the proxy server prompts for
|
|---|
| 86 | identification and password. The Librarian Interface does not store passwords
|
|---|
| 87 | between sessions.
