Comments in the WebSheets

As was noted above, we should not hesitate creating a WebSheet and insert enough comments, text and graphic. They do not affect computing but help viewers and even the developer to understand it (see Sect. 6.3). 

Converting a worksheet for Web distribution, we should examine this commenting rule. The point is that a bulky document decelerates the Web and loads a server with superfluous operations. For this reason, it is worthwhile to place the main comments, the creation history, the detailed description, instmctions etc, into a separate non-Mathcad file, for example, html-file created in Word or FrontPage. The Mathcad worksheet itself should contain short comments and references to the bulky , additional comments that the user may open in a new browser window. For the same reason, the user should avoid inserting too many complex plots. It is better to freeze static plots that do not change with the source data varying and insert them as pictures. 

When publishing a document on the Internet, we should think of making it polylingual. That is, we may duplicate all comments in some languages, in Russian, English, Spanish, etc. Another way is to allow a user to choose the language (Fig. 6.122). 

We enter the comments into the vectors and their elements are displayed depending on the chosen language (the first language corresponds to the first elements of vectors, the second language — to the second elements etc). There is the third solution t allowing a user to open some variants of a worksheet (several files) with variables and comments written in different languages, for example Vinput and Vbx- The WebSheet at http //twtmpei.ac.ru/mas/worksheets/Tests/ Test Cone.mcd and http //twtmpei.acju/mas/worksheets/rests/rest Cone Eng. mcd were created using this method. 

Comment. It is possible that the server application will feel what browser, Russian or English, touches it and open the Russian or English variant of the WebSheet accordingly.
