Description
This widget is not intended for displaying or changing the value of a field. It is used only as a mechanism for controlling the appearance, layout, and behavior of XHTML elements in ProcScript. You can use $fieldproperties to set the values of attributes in ProcScript.
This widget also supports a number of extended triggers to control browser behavior. Although it may seem counter-intuitive to have client-side events handled by triggers (which are processed on the server), it provides a mechanism for making the user interface more flexible and dynamic.
