Bot Keys

If more than one custom FrontPage component is specified in the description file, then each component mentioned in the

[info]

section’s “list” key should have its own section with the same name (which is called the shortname of the component) and the following keys. If only one component is specified in the component directory, then these component keys can be placed in the

[info]

section.

The keys stored in the component sections are:

name

The displayable name of the component (also called the longname of the component), as shown in the FrontPage Insert|FrontPage Component dialog. This is an optional parameter. It defaults to the shortname of the component.

description

A short description of the component. This is an optional parameter.

type

The type of component. Possible values are “insert” or “form”. A form component handles form submissions, while an insert component usually replaces itself with some HTML. This is a mandatory parameter.
