HTML App
Overview
The HTML app creates a workspace where you can create and display HTML. To create an HTML workspace, choose
a name for the workspace, enter it in the name textbox and then click add. This will create a tab
for the named workspace.
When you create an HTML workspace, the workspace is divided into two regions. The top section is the HTML
display section. The HTML area is in the bottom section. Enter some HTML text in the text area and click
the update button. This will cause the inputted HTML to be rendered in the top HTML canvas.
HTML Type
- Container - this is HTML that represents a section of a page. That is, it will be placed within
an HTML div. When you select a container HTML component, the component will be displayed in the center
pane.
- Page - this represents HTML that is a whole page. (you may insert davinci components in it) When
you select the page type, the a page button will appear under your editor. Click the page button
to open a new broswer tab displaying the page.
Topics
- Dynamic Content
- content that is linked to some data, often times data that can change.
- Insertable Page
- HTML that has sections that the user can select and insert other components into using the
page editor.
- Templates
- bits of HTML that are saved for easy access when creating new HTML
- HTML forms
- a discussion of how to create a form where a user can enter information, possibly in response to a question,
which can be captured and can either affect the information displayed in the page, or collected and saved in a database.
