"Selecting an element" on page629, "Attributes" on page627 and "Styling and formatting an
element" on page630.
ID's and classes are particularly useful with regard to variable data (see "Personalizing
content" on page780) and styling (see "Styling templates with CSS files" on page738).
When you add elements, such as text, images or a table, to the content of a template, you are
actually constructing an HTML file. It is possible to edit the source of the HTML file directly in
the Designer; see "Editing HTML" on the facing page.
Element types
The following types of content can be added to the content of a template:
l "Images" on page718 and "Dynamic images" on page814
l "Text and special characters" on page730
l "Date" on page706
l "Table" on page726and "Dynamic Table" on page816
l "Boxes" on page687: Positioned Box, Inline Box, Div and Span
Tip
Wrapping elements in a box (see "Boxes" on page687) or in a semantic HTML
element makes it easier to target them in a script or in a style sheet. Place the
cursor in the element or select multiple elements. Then, on the menu, click Insert >
Wrap in Box. You can now use the wrapper element as a script's or style's selector;
see "Using the Text Script Wizard" on page799 and "Styling and formatting" on
page736.
