To add an ID and/or class to an element that has already been added to a template, select the
element (see "Selecting an element" on the next page) and type an ID and/or a class in the
respective fields on the Attributes pane at the top right.
Other attributes
Apart from the ID and class, elements can have a varying number of properties, or 'attributes' as
they're called in HTML (see "Editing HTML" on the previous page). Which properties an
element has, depends on the element itself. An image, for example, has at least four attributes:
src (the image's URL), alt (alternate text), width and height. These attributes are visible on the
Attributes pane when you click an image in the content.
For each type of element, a small selection of attributes is visible on the Attributes pane at the
top right.
Changing attributes via script
Many attributes can be changed via the user interface. Another way to change attributes is by
using a script.
Any of the Script Wizards can produce a script that changes an attribute of an HTML element.
Set the Options in the Script Wizard to Attribute, to output the script's results to the value of a
specific attribute. See "Using the Text Script Wizard" on page500.
In code, you can change an element's attribute using the function attr(); see "Writing your own
scripts" on page515 and "Designer Scripts API" on page729.
Inserting an element
To insert an element in the content of a template:
1.
Click the respective toolbar button. Alternatively, click the element on the Insert menu.
2. Add an ID and/or a class. ID's and classes are particularly useful with regard to variable
data (see "Personalizing content" on page485) and styling (see "Styling templates with
CSS files" on page454).
