Control Tag

The control tag provides a placeholder in an applet Web template for a control or list column. It uses the following format:

<div od-type="control" id="1" property="property_name"/>

where:

• id. Maps a child applet, control, or list column to this placeholder tag.

• property. Optional. If you include this attribute, then it identifies the property of the control or list item that OD displays on the Web page.

You can use this tag only in an applet Web template of type Base, Edit, New, or Query.

You cannot nest the control tag. For example, SWE does not support following usage:

<div od-type="control" id = "1"> <!--the "parent" control
<div od-property="displayname"/>
<div od-property="FormattedHtml"/>
<div od-type="control" id = "2" property="formattedHtml">
<!-- A child control gets context or gets  properties from its "parent>
<!--od section control close–>         <!--End of parent -->
