Description
Reads values from the form elements in the dialog box and adds the behavior to the user’s
document. Dreamweaver calls this function when the user clicks OK in the Server Behaviors
dialog box. If this function returns successfully, the Server Behaviors dialog box closes. If this
function fails, it displays an error message without closing the Server Behaviors dialog box. This
function can edit a user’s document.
For more information, see “dwscripts.applySB()” on page 259.
