Page Wrapper

Use the Page Wrapper part to create a placeholder for an HTML page. If you have more than one HTML page defined for your application, you can use this part to make connections from the main HTML page to the secondary pages.

Note:

The first connection to this part must be to open the HTML page using one of the open actions. Connections will not work until you create the view using one of the open actions.

To add a Page Wrapper part, select the Web Connection Category ( ), then the Page Wrapper part ( ). You can also add the part using the Add Part dialog and specifying the class name, AbtHtmlPageWrapper.

Page Wrapper Properties

The Page Wrapper part has the following properties:

•

pagePart

Use the pagePart property to specify the name of the part that defines the page represented by this Page Wrapper part.

partName

In the Part name field, type the name you want to use to describe the part. For non-visual parts, this text appears under the icon for the part on the free-form surface.

The name of the part can consist of alphanumeric characters, and must be unique from all other parts on the layout surface.

This field is optional. If you do not specify a part name, VA Smalltalk generates a unique name based on the class name of the part.
