+<p><strong>The Web Services Preferences Dialog Box</strong></p>
+
+<p>Jalview includes a range of web services clients for data
+retrieval and analysis. The <em>Web Services</em> menu found in each
+alignment window provides access to some of these services, and is
+configured <em>via</em> the web services preference dialog box,
+available from the <em>Preferences</em> panel from the <strong>Tools→Preferences...</strong>
+menu from the Jalview Desktop window's menu bar.</p>

+<p><strong>Configuring the list of JABAWS servers</strong><br>
+The main area of the panel shows the list of <a href="JABAWS.html">JABAWS</a>
+servers that Jalview is currently aware of. A server's URL may be added,
+edited by double clicking on it, or deleted by selecting it and using
+the buttons below. After adding or editing a server's URL, you will be
+asked if you wish to test the server. If you wish to do so, then first
+ensure you can view the new server's test report, which will be output
+on Jalview's standard console output (you can open Jalview's built in
+console viewer via the <strong>Tools→Java Console</strong> menu
+option).</p>
+<p><strong>Controlling the layout of the Web Services Menu</strong><br>
+The range of services that Jalview is able to access depends upon your
+requirements, and local computational resources. However, when a large
+number of resources are available, then the entries and sub menus in the
+<strong>web services</strong> menu can quickly become unwieldly. The
+options in the lower part of the dialog box enable you to control the
+display of each type of analysis service client in the web services
+menu. In addition, indexing options are provided that enable you to
+define the layout of the menus provided for JABAWS services by sorting
+them into submenus according to analysis type and/or host server.</p>
