Element tag
The E tag defines elements within a category. These elements populate the right pane
in the Tag Chooser and the Expression Builder.
The following table describes the
E
tag.
Creating Tag Definitions
Interfaces such as Tag Insight and Tag Inspector require tag-specific information to
operate properly. For instance, the Tag Inspector needs to know the attributes of the
tag being entered, the type of each of those attributes, and, in special instances, the
enumerated values of an attribute. Individual tag definition files store this information.
These tag definitions are stored in \Extensions\TagDefs\. For instance, all the
information about the
APPLET
tag is stored in
\Extensions\TagDefs\HTML\Applet.vtm. The definition files are organized in
language directories to prevent possible name conflicts between various markup
languages.
Note
Whenever you make changes to a VTM file or create a new one, save the
file, then press Ctrl+Alt+Shift+C to apply the changes.

Expression Builder — This value represents the syntax of the expression
element to be pasted into the expression text box.

attribute can be used to specify the Help as a separate file.
