BuildTarget
Usage
Use the BuildTarget function on a display page to create output target controls that display links, images, or text in response to a user selection.
You call the BuildTarget function in the <BODY> section of a display page. Also, all BuildTarget calls must be inside the <FORM> section of the HTML source of display pages. The function is usually called from within a JavaScript document.write method.
