About Buttons in Handheld


Set the HTML Type field on buttons to Button, MiniButton, PushButton, or MiniButtonEditNew. All of these HTML Types map to the same button control on the handheld device.

Buttons with text labels on them are sized to the minimum width required to fit the text on the buttons.

NOTE:  You cannot use scripting to augment the button functionality in handheld applications.

You may add buttons as long as the method invoked is supported by the class or superclass of the frame or business component. You may also remove buttons from an applet. Be careful when removing buttons because you may alter the behavior of your application in unintended ways. Table 5 describes the behavior of buttons on the different screens. Use this table to guide your decisions about removing buttons from your handheld applications.
