Input Tags

The following tags are intended for use on input views of a board. They can be used to create buttons, links, and more. Three tags in particular are restricted to input views:

• <input>

• <select>

• <textarea>

By default, the <input> and <select> tags are represented in the SQL Server^® database with a variable character field (nvarchar) limit of 500 characters. Text fields that hold an unlimited amount of data are <textarea> fields.

The underlying database field types can be overridden by the fieldtype attribute. In addition, field length for nvarchar fields can be overridden using the fieldlength attribute. If fieldtype is set to datetime, then the format attribute can be used to format the output of the field.

You may wish to review the allowed values and requirements so as to better understand the tags listed and how to properly implement them on your boards.
