Output Fields

Output fields are field types that display information but generally speaking have no user interaction. They can be used to display images (company logos etc.) formatted text or even links to other web pages. The following two types of output fields are available:

Text Area (Rich)​

This enables the app builder to include 'Rich Text' in the body of the form. Various types of formatting can be added and images and hyperlinks inserted as shown below.

alt image

This can be used to create headers, display formatted help etc. The example below uses images, formatted text and a link to create a welcome section to a web portal.

Text Area (HTML)​

This is similar to the rich text option but it allows for the insertion of hyper text markup language (HTML) code, which is the standard language for documents designed to be displayed in a web browser. Using this option, the full range of HTML formatting can be employed. To make full use of this you will need some experience with HTML. You can design the output using an external HTML editor and then copy and paste the generated code into this field if you prefer. Note that Javascript is not enabled for this field type.
