Objects
Object Description
"results" on
page778
This object is used to manipulate the content of the template. It contains the
HTML element or set of HTML elements that match the selector of the script,
specified in the script editor.
This object is not available in Control Scripts, because that type of script
doesn't have a selector (see "Control Scripts" on page369).
"record" on

The record in the main data set that is currently being merged. To get the
value of a field in the record, use record.fields['fieldname'] or
record.fields.fieldname.

page693
Global object that allows you to log messages.
