Web Connection User's Guide
Use the Composite part to contain a set of elements that provide a reusable
piece of your user interface. Typically, you might use this part to
create a standard header or footer, which you can then add to each page you
build.
To add a Composite part, select the Web Connection Category (
), then the Composite part (
). You can also add the part using the Add Part dialog and specifying
the class name, AbtHtmlComposite.
The Composite part has the following properties:
- breakAfter
- Use the breakAfter property to indicate whether you want the
Web browser to insert a line break in the HTML after this part.
- breakBefore
- Use the breakBefore property to indicate whether you want the
Web browser to insert a line break in the HTML before this part.
- eventHandlers
- Use the eventHandlers property to define any event handlers for
this part. Event handlers provide the ability to detect and react to
events that occur while an HtmlPage is loaded in a Web browser. An
example of an event handler is mouse over, where you can specify
when the mouse moves over an HTML element, something happens, usually a
JavaScript is executed..
- extraAttributes
- Use the extraAttributes property to specify any additional HTML
attributes that you want included in the HTML tagging generated by the
part. You can use this property to include HTML attributes that are not
directly supported by VisualAge.
- partName
- In the Part name field, type the name you want to use to
describe the part. For non-visual parts, this text appears under the
icon for the part on the free-form surface.
The name of the part can consist of alphanumeric characters, and must be
unique from all other parts on the layout surface.
This field is optional. If you do not specify a part name, VisualAge
generates a unique name based on the class name of the part.
