Overview of Applet Web Templates


An applet web template is a type of Siebel web template that allows you to define multiple templates for a single applet, where each template file is associated with one or more modes. The applet web template is a child of the applet. For more information, see About the Form Applet and List Applet and Adding a Web Template to an Applet.

Properties of the Applet Web Template Item

The applet web template item defines the mappings that exist between controls and list columns to placeholders in the web template file. The applet web template item is a child of the parent applet web template.

Table 29 describes properties of the applet web template item.

Table 29. Properties of an Applet Web Template Item
Property
Description

Name

Name of the applet web template item, which is typically the same as the Control property.

Control

Name of the control as Siebel CRM displays it in the Siebel client.

Item Identifier

A unique, numeric identifier for each control that Siebel Tools creates in the layout editor. Siebel CRM uses the value in the markup language tag that specifies the corresponding control in a template. It binds the control to a position on the page. Each applet web template item that comes predefined with Siebel CRM includes this unique number.

If you use the Web Template editor to add an object to an applet web template, then Siebel CRM automatically adds an applet web template item for this object and it sets the value for the item identifier to a unique value. If you modify the value of the Item Identifier property, then you must make sure the value you enter is unique among all objects that the Applet Web Template Items list displays. Siebel Tools does not automatically verify that the value you enter is unique. If every item identifier value in the Applet Web Template Items list is not unique, then the Siebel CRM run-time environment might not work correctly.

Type

Indicates the type of control that the applet web template item defines. You can choose one of the following values:

  • Control
  • List Item
  • Web Control
