Specifying List Viewer object tag parameters

To embed an instance of the List Viewer in HTML, use the object tag with the type set to application/avantgo-mime-list : 

<object id=objName type="application/avantgo-mime-list" 
    width=pixelsWide height=pixelsHigh
    style=inlineStyleSpec>

Where:

  • objName is the label you will use to refer to the list object.

  • pixelsWide is the width of the list area in pixels.

  • pixelsHigh is the height of the list area in pixels.

  • inlineStyleSpec is an inline style specification to control the formatting of the list display.

The Master-Detail page example illustrates the use of the List Viewer.

For a list of parameters you can specify within the object tag, see the table below. For reference material you will need to write JavaScript or C code to use the Date/Time Picker, see M-Business Date/Time Picker API.

For a list of parameters you can specify within the object tag, see the table below. After the object tag for the List Viewer is specified, you can use the M-Business List Viewer API on the object.

Specific format specifications for the read-only text field are listed in Field format specifications.
