Working with HTML extension objects

The HTML extension object is an advanced feature that allows you to extend the functionality and contents of project beyond what the program natively supports.

With the HTML extension object, you can extend the functionality of a project by adding the following:

ASP .NET (.aspx)

Use this object type to insert your own ASP .NET script. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page. The HTML page will be published with an extension of .aspx.

ASP script

Use this object type to insert your own ASP script. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page. The HTML page will be published with an extension of .asp.

Bottom of file scripting

Use this object type to insert your own code or comments at the bottom of the file. Your custom code or comments will be placed below and outside the </HTML> tags of the HTML page.

Cascading Style Sheet

Use this object type to apply a cascading style sheet. Cascading style sheets will not cascade to text that the program produces, and should only be used to format objects.

ColdFusion

Use this object type to insert your own ColdFusion script. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page. The HTML page will be published with an extension of .cfm.

Custom DIV Use this object type to insert your own free-form, custom HTML. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page.

Header Scripting

Use this object type to insert your own JavaScript. When this is selected, your custom script will be placed within the <script> tags in the head of the HTML page.

Be sure your custom JavaScript does not contain <script> tags.

Java Applet

Use this object type to import a Java class or Jar file. If you use a Jar file, you must also specify the class name you would like to use within the Jar file.

JSP script

Use this object type to insert your own JSP script. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page. The HTML page will be published with an extension of .jsp.

Meta tags

Use this object type to insert meta tags. Meta tags will follow the <title> tags within the head of the HTML page. An example of a meta tag is:

<META NAME="Author" CONTENT="Your name">

PHP Script

Use this object type to insert your own PHP script. Your custom code will be placed within a <div> block in the body of the HTML page. The HTML page will be published with an extension of .php.

Shockwave Movie

Use this object type to import a Shockwave file.

Top of file scripting

Use this object type to insert your own code or comments at the top of the file. Your custom code or comments will be placed above and outside the <HTML> tags of the HTML page.

  • ASP, JSP, PHP, ColdFusion and ASP .NET object types cannot be used on the same page within project.

  • You can use tokens within an HTML extension object and a Run JavaScript action for replacement and manipulation within your custom Javascript. For details, see Token replacements for custom JavaScript.
