Example

In this example, the substitution variable will be set up for use as the Start Page URL (see General Tab, Start Page Settings, Start Page URL).  Substitution variables can also be used in browser automatic actions (see Browser Tab, Automatic Action List, Edit Automatic Action, URL to Match ) or via the JavaScript call KioApp.DoUrlSubstitution() (see Scripting).

1. Select the plus icon (see image above) to add a new machine-specific substitution variable.
2. In the popup window, enter a name of page1 and a value of /sdcard/downloads/englishStartPage.html (see image below).
   
   
3. On the General Tab, set the “Start Page URL” (see General Tab, Start Page Settings, Start Page URL) to $$page1$$.
   
   
4. Run the KioWare for Android browser application, and the englishStartPage.html file will automatically open.
