[opencms-dev] creating editable content

Mon Jun 27 14:15:23 CEST 2005

For example: element1*,element2,element3*

The element1 and element3 appears directly when you edit the page.

Element2 must be activated using the Elements button in the editor.

You can think about * as 'required' elements because they will always be
in the page even empty.

You can use something as element1*|my first element where the part after
the | name you want to display for this element but I'm not sure cause I
never use it.

I didn't found much documentation about this but I hope that someone
with better knowledge can help us.

Regards,

Borja Marcos.

correct! Thanks for the tip!

Now, what is this "*" I have to type at the end of the element name and
what 
happens if I have more than one elements? How do I enter more than one
names 
in this field? What's the syntax for that?

Thanks for your prompt help
