STEP BY STEP
17.5 Preparing to Program With a DHTML Project
-
In the VB IDE, create a new project whose type is DHTML Application.
-
By default, the new project will provide you with a Modules and a Designers
folder. You will mostly work with the Designers folder when adding DHTML functionality.
-
The Designers folder by default contains a single designer. You can double-click
the designer to bring up its window, which appears in two panes to the left of
the Project Explorer.
The left-hand pane of the DHTML Page Designer gives a schematic tree view layout
of the elements in the DHTML page. The Document object lies at the root, and under
the Document object lie all the other objects that belong to the DHTML page as
elements. The right-hand pane of the DHTML Page Designer is a visual design surface
for the page. You can type text and place objects from the ToolBox on this surface,
as discussed in the following section.
