Note
Make sure that the file name is exactly the same as the file in the Snippets folder. If the
file name isn’t correct, the snippet will not appear in the template.
Loading part of a snippet
When a snippet contains a part that can be identified by a selector, that selector can be used to

results.loadhtml(‘snippets/nameofthesnippet.html’, ‘selector’)
See the Designer API for more information about this function.

script.
Example
The following script evaluates if the value of the LANGUAGE field in the record is ‘En’. If so, the
snippet is added to the content.
if (record.fields.LANGUAGE == ‘En’) {
results.loadhtml(‘snippets/nameofthesnippet.html’);
}
Another example is given in a how-to; see Load a snippet based on a data field value.

Example
The following script reads the value of the LANGUAGE field in the record and uses that value
as the selector in the function loadhtml(). If the snippet contains an HTML element with this ID
