Click the Data tab in the Insert bar to display a set of buttons that let you
add dynamic content and server behaviors to your page.
The number and type of buttons that appear vary depending upon the document
type opened in the Document window. Move your mouse over an icon to display a
tooltip that describes what that button does.
The Insert bar includes buttons to add the following items to the page:
-
Recordsets
-
Dynamic text or tables
-
Record navigation bars
If you switch to Code view (View > Code), additional panels might appear
in their own Insert bar category, allowing you to insert code in the page. For
example, if you view a ColdFusion page in Code view, a CFML panel becomes
available in the CFML category of the Insert bar.
Several panels provide ways for you to create dynamic pages:
-
Select the Bindings panel (Window > Bindings) to define sources of dynamic
content for your page and add the content to the page.
-
Select the Server Behaviors panel (Window > Server Behaviors) to add
server-side logic to your dynamic pages.
-
Select the Databases panel (Window >Databases) to explore databases or
create database connections.
-
Select the Components panel (Window > Components) to inspect, add, or
modify code for JavaBeans, Adobe ColdFusion components, or web
services.
Note: The Components panel is
enabled only if you open a ColdFusion, a JSP, or an ASP.NET page. Also, the
document might not support certain components. For example, ColdFusion documents
do not support JavaBeans.
A server behavior is the set of instructions inserted in a dynamic page at
design time and executed on the server at run time.
