The following is an example of a Form Applet template for use in Edit, New, and Query modes. Applets to be used in Base mode are similar except that they do not contain the <swe:this property="FormattedHtml" hintText="Outside Applet Help Text"/> <table class="AppletStyle1" width="100%" align="center"> <swe:include file="CCTitle.swt"/> <swe:this property="FormattedHtml"/> <swe:for-each startValue="1301" count="10" iteratorName="currentId"> <swe:control id="swe:currentId" hintMapType="FormItem"> <td class="scLabelRight"> <swe:this property="RequiredIndicator" <swe:this property="DisplayName" hintText="Label"/> <swe:this property="FormattedHtml" hintText="Field"/> The main tags that appear in this template are
In many cases, you can forego read-only forms (Base mode) and use persistently editable forms because task activities are often data editing and input. This type of form improves usability because users can enter data without first having to click an edit button and then wait for the form to appear in edit mode. If an applet is set to be in the Edit mode in a view (as specified by the mode property of the View Web Template Item), this applet is never shown in the Base mode. If you update the field values in this applet and commit the change, the applet continues to be shown in this mode after the changes are written to the database. You can, however, invoke a method like NewQuery or NewRecord on an applet that is shown in an Edit mode to show it in the Query or New modes. After executing the query or writing the new record, the applet is shown in the Edit mode. |
