Inserting a FormValue

Note: The formValue component adds a value that is submitted with a form. The component is not displayed in the UI.

To insert a formValue component:

In the Design Structure Window of the desired file, locate the node in which you wish to insert a formParameter component.
In the Component Palette, select Form Components from the dropdown list, and then drag and drop the formValue component to the parent node of your choice.
The formValue node is inserted and highlighted under the expanded parent node.
In the Property Inspector, set the following attributes for the formValue component:
- name - (Required) Enter a name for the component. The name is used to identify the element in client-to-client or client-to-server events.
- value - Enter the value to send when the form is submitted.

Note: To use data binding, see Data Binding a Component Attribute.
