What you see in Source view

When you insert a Web DataWindow DTC in a Web page, the following text is added to the page source between two METADATA comments:

The OBJECT element in the METADATA comment is required only when you are authoring the page; it is not needed at execution time. However, when the application server processes the page, it executes the generated server script on the page and returns the resulting HTML to the Web browser.

NoteWorking with the generated text Typically, you do not modify any of the text generated for the Web DataWindow DTC. Changes you make are lost the next time you modify the properties of the control and regenerate the text.
