Example
This script loads a snippet into a variable and retrieves an element from the snippet using query
() and text().
var mysnippet = loadhtml('snippets/text-root-wrapped.html');
var subject = query("#subject", mysnippet).text();
results.append("<p style='font-weight: bold;'>" + subject +
"</p>");
text(value)
Replaces the text content of each element in a result set by the supplied value.
Example
This script loads a snippet, then looks for placeholders using find(), and replaces them using
text(value).
var mysnippet = loadhtml('snippets/snippet.html');
mysnippet.find('@var1@').text('OL Connect 1');
mysnippet.find('@var2@').html('<i>OL Connect 2</i>').css('text-
decoration','underline');
results.replaceWith(mysnippet);

Object Usage
"section"
on
page786
Much of the Control Script magic is performed by setting one of the fields of
the section object. Via the section object you can omit, select and clone
sections; add a background to a Print section; add a header to an email; etc.
A section can be retrieved via the context that it belongs to, using
merge.template.contexts.ContextType.sections["section name"]. For
example: merge.template.contexts.PRINT.sections["Section EN"].
