Image Fields

You can insert a "clickable" image into a form. Clicking on the image immediately submits the form, sending along the x and y position of the click.

(Every form element must must have a "Form Tag". When a form is submitted, then the POST to the form URL will contain "<Form Tag>.x=<horizontal position of click (in pixels)>" and "<Form Tag>.y=<vpos>".)

Add an image field:

Image field dialog

1. Position the cursor where you want the image to be.
2. Click the Picture button on the form palette to get the dialog box above. This dialog allows you to insert a text area (a scrollable area in which the user can type more than one line of text) into a form.
3. Specify a value for the Form Tag.
4. Enter the Location of the image. Either:
   • Enter an URL or the local file name in the Location field.
   • Click the Browse button to search the directories and locate and select the file.
5. Choose, by clicking, a Text Alignment option-Top, Middle, or Bottom-to choose how the image is aligned with the adjoining text.
6. Click, optionally, on Import Image.
   • If imported, the image file is saved to the page's MiniWeb and has a relative link.
   • Otherwise, the image remains outside the page's directory. Its location is a full URL.
7. Click OK, and the image appears where the cursor was positioned.
