Each field stores a single type of information. You create fields on forms, subforms, or in layout regions. When a user opens the document, the document uses the form as a template to provide the structure for displaying the data.Ī field is the part of an application that collects data. When a user fills out the information in a form and saves it, the information is saved as a document. A form provides the structure for creating and displaying documents, and documents are the design elements that store data in the database. What sets forms apart from pages is that forms can be used to collect information. Everything that can be done with a page can be done with a form. If you select the onLoad event for the client, you can use JavaScript, Common JavaScript, LotusScript, or Formula.įorms, like pages, display information. For example, if you select the onLoad event for the Web, you program it using JavaScript or Common JavaScript. When you select an event, the programming choice for that event appears following the Object tab. To see what events are available for a page or form, open the page or form in Domino® Designer and look at the list of events in the Objects tab in the Programmer's pane. Creating style sheets as shared resourcesĪ page or form has events associated with it that you can use to run a simple action, a formula, a LotusScript® routine, or a JavaScript™ program.Transparent layers reveal layers underneath opaque layers conceal layers underneath. You can create and stack multiple layers. Layers give you design flexibility because you can control the placement, size, and content of information. Layers let you position overlapping blocks of content on a page, form, or subform. Setting launch properties for pages or forms.In Web applications, you might want to display an embedded view or embedded outline as an applet rather than as HTML to provide a richer user interface. Applets can range from programs you build yourself to prebuilt programs that you simply drop into a page or form. You can add a Java™ applet to a page or form to provide visual interest or additional functionality - for example, you might use animation to make your home page or form appealing. Creating and formatting horizontal rules.Be aware that different browsers may display tags differently and that not all browsers support the HTML tags that Domino generates. Certain types of formatting such as indents, interline spacing, and tabs do not appear when viewed from a Web browser because HTML has no corresponding format.

Bullets, numbers, alignment (except Full Justification and No Wrap), spacing, and named styles are some HTML equivalents. Creating a home page for an applicationįor Web applications, Domino® automatically converts text styles to HTML tags when there is a corresponding HTML equivalent.To work around this, you can display pages in the following ways: A page or form can contain the following: Pages can be used anywhere in your application that you have text, graphics, or an embedded control, such as an outline, to present to the user. A page is a database design element that displays information. Pages and forms are similar in certain ways. Your Domino application can be made up of one or more Domino databases. Databases hold the data, logic, and design elements for your application. Domino databases are the containers for your application. At the minimum, your application plan should address these questions:Īll Domino® applications begin with a Domino database.
