HTML Framework for Address Book

The first step in building a Remote Data Service application is to set up the standard HTML Web page framework. The HTML skeleton contains the program code for the application objects you use, such as buttons, text boxes, and data-aware controls.

The following code fragment shows the HTML skeleton for the Address Book application. This part includes the standard HTML heading and page structure tags, comments identifying the application, and Web page text, font, and color information.

Comments are added at locations where the application objects (such as buttons, text boxes, data-aware controls) are located. These are places where you can drop in your own application components. Click those placeholder comments to take you to descriptions of those parts of the application.

Note Most of the common HTML tags, and those that define the Web page background attributes, will not be defined here. The SCRIPT tag indicates that control is passed to a scripting language, which in this case, is VBScript.
