Web Connection User's Guide
Use the Division part to create an HTML <DIV> tag. HTML divisions
divides your document into separate distinct sections and enables the creation
of dynamic web content.
To add a Division part, select the Web Connection Category (
), then the Division part (
). You can also add the part using the Add Part dialog and specifying
the class name, AbtHtmlDivision.
The Division part has the following properties:
- align
- Use the align property to specify how you want the content in
the division to be aligned. You can select any of the following values
from the drop-down list:
In addition, you can specify an alignment by typing the appropriate string
directly into the field. Do this if you want to specify a special
alignment supported by your browser but not directly supported by
VisualAge. VisualAge will use the specified alignment string when
generating HTML at run time, but will use its default alignment at edit
time.
This property is equivalent to the align attribute of
the appropriate HTML element.
- class
- Use the class property to apply the class of a predefined style
to the contents of this division. The value of the class
property is the name of a style defined in a document or external style
sheet.
- 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.
- style
- Use the style property to create an inline style for the
contents of this division.
