When a Markup Language Skeleton (MLS) is generated, the resulting source member contains a combination of HTML tags and Web Option tags. The HTML tags provide much of the presentation elements of the final HTML page, the general layout and 'look-and-feel' of the HTML page, whereas the Web Option tags define how live data is merged into the MLS at runtime. The skeleton may also contain special Web Option control comments that provide extra information to the Web Option server about how to process the skeleton.
At runtime, the server takes a copy of the skeleton and scans the copy looking for tags. For each tag, the server performs certain processes, such as replacing tags with specified live data, thus producing a full HTML page containing live data. It is this HTML page, and not the skeleton, that is sent to the browser for display.
There are several different types of HTML tags, each of which follows the same general format but with its own specific attributes and own specific sub-format. This appendix covers the different formats of the various tags and discusses how they are used in Markup Language Skeletons.
Additionally, input HTML elements (<INPUT…> and <SELECT…> elements) in the generated skeleton use a standard naming system allowing the Web Option to process them correctly.
This section contains the following topics:
