Wizards for HTML elements

PowerBuilder provides several tools to help you create the more complex HTML elements: frame, table, and form. After you create the element, you can edit the tags in Source view. For tables and forms, you can add content to the element in Page view.

Frames

The Frameset wizard is available from the New dialog box. You can graphically lay out the frames and specify an HTML or JSP document for each frame. After you create the frameset, you can edit the No Frames section in the editor.

If you want to change the frameset specifications, you can make the changes in Source view or in the Frameset Properties dialog box available from the Frames view pop-up menu.

Tables

The Table wizard is available on the Table menu in either the Page view or Source view of the HTML editor. You can specify the columns and rows, and the alignment and color attributes. You can also add content to the cells.

After you leave the Table wizard, you can edit the table content in Page view or Source view. In Page view, you can also use the Table menu to manipulate (insert, delete, merge, split) the table's rows, columns, and cells. In Source view, you can directly edit the TR and TD elements for the table.
