Selecting the Content to Show
Specifying the URL to Show on the HTML Content Plane
You can load a web page or other content on the HTML content plane.
Step 1 In the Display Actions list, click URL to be Displayed.
Step 2 Enter or edit the HTTP URL, as described in Table 2-12, then click Go.
Step 3 (Optional) To stop showing the specified content, do one of the following:
• Click .
• Enter an HTTP URL that points to different content, then click Go.
The HTTP URL that you enter persists until you use this procedure again to enter a different URL or
until the next time that you restart your DMP. You cannot save the URL entry so that it persists after
a
restart.
Ta ble 2-11 GUI Elements on the Transparency Page
Element Description
Transparency
Browser Alpha Channel
Transparency/Opacity
(0-255)
Note Although this setting might look identical to a setting described in the “Adjusting
Embedded Browser Settings” section on page 2-4, they are different. You use this setting to
configure transparency for the HTML content plane.
The amount of transparency that you configure for all content that your DMP shows on the HTML
plane. The HTML plane and the video plane can overlap and you will see the video content plane
through the HTML content pane if both of the following are true:
• You show video content and HTML content simultaneously.
• The HTML content plane touches any of the same x-axis and y-axis coordinates that the video
content plane touches.
Values can range from 0 to 255, where:
• 0 — The HTML content plane is completely hidden and only the video content plane is visible.
• 128 — The HTML plane overlays the video plane and content is equally visible on both planes.
• 255 — The video content plane is completely hidden and only the HTML content plane
is
visible.
Note If the HTML content plane contains a graphic that is already partially transparent in its own
right (so that, for example, its rounded edges look smooth against the background color),
that kind of transparency pertains only to interaction between that graphic and other objects
on the same plane. If you then change the Browser Transparency value to 255, for example,
that does not mean you will be able to see the video plane through the partially transparent
graphic on the HTML content plane; in that case, the video plane is still completely hidden,
as expected.
