Applied and Working with presentation
templates for more information).

Framework

The name of the styling framework used by this form or
“None”. Changing this property may result in changes to the generated HTML
and CSS to suit the styling framework or in changes to the list of available
controls and changes to some control properties – additional features may be
displayed to suit the framework. “None” means that the default HTML and CSS
is generated and the default list of controls is displayed.
Currently supported frameworks:
- Bootstrap 4: generates HTML/CSS
suitable for use with Bootstrap 4. When this is selected, the Html
Document Type property is set to HTML 5 and cannot be changed.
See Using Bootstrap with Verj.io
|
Html Document Type
|
This sets the document type (HTML or XHTML) and the
version of HTML or XHTML used:
- HTML5: this is the distributed default and is
the recommended choice
- HTML4_TRANS: output is rendered
in HTML to the HTML 4 transitional standard
- HTML4_STRCT: output is rendered
in HTML to the HTML 4 strict standard. Note that the strict standard is much more
restrictive than transitional and
may cause forms containing additional added HTML and/or JSPs to fail. You should only use this if you have
an explicit reason to do so.
- XHTM1_TRANS: output is rendered
in XHTML to the XHTML 1 transitional standard
- XHTM1_STRCT: output is rendered
in XHTML to the XHTML 1 strict standard. Note that the strict standard is much more
restrictive than transitional
and may cause forms containing additional added HTML and/or JSPs to fail. You should only use this if you have
an explicit reason to do so.
The default for this parameter is taken from Form Options tab of Designer
Preferences.
