Snippet Properties Dialog

A snippet is the text or code that a fragment adds to a page template (in one of four locations). A fragment must have at least one snippet. You can define the properties of the snippet in this dialog, and then edit the content of the snippet in the Fragment Editor.

Element Description
Name The name of the snippet.

(The name may contain spaces and special characters, if you like.)

Location Determines the location where the snippet is added on a page template.

There are four options:

drop-point: Inserts the snippet where the cursor is located on the page template.

head: Inserts the snippet in the head of the page template (specifically the end of the <HEAD> tag).

top-of-body: Inserts the snippet at the beginning of the body in the page template (immediately following the <BODY> tag).

bottom-of-body: Inserts the snippet at the end of the body in the page template (immediately preceding the </BODY> tag).

Include Determines the way in which the snippet is added to a page template.

There are three options:

simple: Adds the entire snippet to the page template. If parameters are present, their values are added directly to the page, making them a permanent part of the page. The fragment is no longer recognized as a fragment and its parameters cannot be changed.

inline: Adds the entire snippet to the page template. As an inline snippet, however, the fragment and its parameters are still recognized as a fragment. You can still move the fragment, delete it, and modify its parameters.

reference: Adds a reference to the snippet in the page template (similar to an include file). As a referenced snippet, it is still recognized and managed as a fragment, and you can still edit the fragment in the Fragment Editor and then see the changes on your page template.

Design View Code Creates placeholder text for the fragment snippet when the snippet is viewed in Design view.

The Additional Information button opens a text editor that you use to enter placeholder text.

This Element is intended for snippets inserted in the drop-point, top-of-body, and bottom-of-body locations; not the head location.
