Using Predefined HTML-transparent Tag Names
Go Up to Using Page Producer Components
While you can create your own HTML-transparent tags to represent any kind of information processed by your page producer, there are several predefined tag names associated with values of the TTag data type. These predefined tag names correspond to HTML commands that are likely to vary over response messages. They are listed in the following table:
| Tag Name | TTag value | What the tag should be converted to |
|---|---|---|
|
Link |
tgLink |
A hypertext link. The result is an HTML sequence beginning with an <A> tag and ending with an </A> tag. |
|
Image |
tgImage |
A graphic image. The result is an HTML <IMG> tag. |
|
Table |
tgTable |
An HTML table. The result is an HTML sequence beginning with a <TABLE> tag and ending with a </TABLE> tag. |
|
ImageMap |
tgImageMap |
A graphic image with associated hot zones. The result is an HTML sequence beginning with a <MAP> tag and ending with a </MAP> tag. |
|
Object |
tgObject |
An embedded ActiveX object. The result is an HTML sequence beginning with an <OBJECT> tag and ending with an </OBJECT> tag. |
|
Embed |
tgEmbed |
A Netscape-compliant add-in DLL. The result is an HTML sequence beginning with an <EMBED> tag and ending with an </EMBED> tag. |
Any other tag name is associated with tgCustom. The page producer supplies no built-in processing of the predefined tag names. They are simply provided to help applications organize the conversion process into many of the more common tasks.
Note: The predefined tag names are case insensitive.
