Document Conventions
This guide uses the following conventions:
• When this document refers to iPlanet Web Server, it refers to the Enterprise Edition.
•The
monospace font is used for sample code and code listings, API and language
elements (such as method names and property names), filenames, path names,
directory names, HTML tags, and any text that must be typed on the screen.
•The italic font is used in code to represent placeholder parameters that should be
replaced with an actual value. It is also used for book titles, emphasis, letters as letters
(for example, “Spell it with a T.”), and words as words (for example, “The word server
is in every product name.”).
• A slash (/) is used to separate directories in a path. (Windows NT supports both the
slash and the backslash.)
