The Insert bar definition file

147

Example

command="dw.showTagChooser()"

file="file_path"

Description

The 

file

 attribute specifies the path, relative to the Dreamweaver Configuration folder, of an 

object file. Dreamweaver derives the tooltip for the object icon from the title of the object file, 
unless you specify the 

name

 attribute.

Example

file="Templates/Editable.htm"

tag="editor"

Description

This attribute tells Dreamweaver to invoke a Tag editor. In Code view, if the 

tag

 attribute is 

defined and the user clicks the object, Dreamweaver invokes the Tag dialog box. In Code 
view, if you specify the 

tag

 and 

command

 attributes, Dreamweaver invokes the Tag editor. In 

Design view, if 

codeOnly="TRUE"

 and you do not specify the 

file

 attribute, Dreamweaver 

MX invokes Split view, places focus in the code, and invokes the Tag editor.

Example

tag = "form"

name="tooltip_text"

Description

The 

name

 attribute specifies the tooltip that appears when the mouse pointer rests over the 

object. If you specify an object file but do not specify the 

name

 attribute, Dreamweaver uses 

the name of the object file for the tooltip.

Some Insert bar objects use a variation of the name attribute with prefix 

MMString

. The 

MMString denotes a localized string; these values are explained in 

Example

name = "cfoutput"

NO

TE

If the name attribute is not provided, the object will not be available for grouping in the 
Favorites category on the Insert bar UI.
