Palettes A palette is a collection of static or dynamic HTML elements. You use the palette to add elements to a page. To open the palette window, choose Tools->Palettes->Palettes or click the palette button on the component window. The palette window holds all currently loaded palettes. You select a particular palette by clicking its icon at the top of the palette window. Static Elements palette displays static HTML elements. Form Elements palette displays form-based dynamic elements. Abstract Elements palette displays dynamic elements that have no direct HTML equivalent. These elements are often not "visible" when you are constructing the page in the way that the form-based elements are visible. They are replaced with text and graphics by your application at run time. The three palettes listed above are standard palettes and are always displayed. You can create your own palettes and you can load palettes created by someone else. See "Creating a Palette" and "Loading and Unloading Palettes" for more information.
