2. Click the Forms tab.
3. In the list, find and select the desired record.
4. Click Edit.
5. If you add a control, it is positioned before the selected control on the form.
  On the preview, select the desired control.
 

Note: If the control list is shown instead of the preview, in the list, find and select the desired control.

6. On the Properties tab, click Add.
7. Click Literal HTML.
8. Sub-task: Define control properties.
  8.1 In the Control field, type the literal HTML control name.
 

Note: Only use letters and numbers, no spaces.

  8.2 By default, the literal HTML control is shown on the form.
  If you want to hide the literal HTML control on the form, select No in the Visible field.
  8.3 In the Text field, type the literal XHTML tags.
  8.4 Select Yes in the Append new line field.
9. In the Documentation section, write the literal HTML control documentation. For example, describe the purpose and characteristics of the literal HTML control.

Notes

  • In general, if you add a form control, it is positioned before the selected control on the form.
  • Where the control is exactly positioned on the preview, also depends on:
    • The Append new line property of the previous control and of the added control.
    • The preview style sheet.
  • You can use the Up and Down buttons on the Properties tab to move a form control to another position on the form.
