The Web page editor lets you add Web items to your InternetExpress page producer and view the resulting HTML page. Display the Web page editor by double-clicking on a InternetExpress page producer component.
Click the New Item button to add a subitem to the currently selected item. The Add Web Component dialog lists only those items that can be added to the currently selected item.
The InternetExpress page producer can contain one of two types of item, each of which generates an HTML form:
TDataForm, which generates an HTML form for displaying data and the controls that manipulate that data or submit updates.
Items you add to TDataForm display data in a multi-record grid (TDataGrid) or in a set of controls each of which represents a single field from a single record (TFieldGroup). In addition, you can add a set of buttons to navigate through data or post updates (TDataNavigator), or a button to apply updates back to the Web client (TApplyUpdatesButton). Each of these items contains subitems to represent individual fields or buttons. Finally, as with most Web items, you can add a layout grid (TLayoutGroup), that lets you customize the layout of any items it contains.
TQueryForm, which generates an HTML form for displaying or reading application-defined values. For example, you can use this form for displaying and submitting parameter values.
Items you add to TQueryForm display application-defined values(TQueryFieldGroup) or a set of buttons to submit or reset those values (TQueryButtons). Each of these items contains subitems to represent individual values or buttons. You can also add a layout grid to a query form, just as you can to a data form.
The bottom of the Web page editor displays the generated HTML code and lets you see what it looks like in a browser (Internet Explorer).
