Hi PJ,
You could use a template engine (Velocity, Freemarker etc) to layout
the markup and add placeholders which are filled at runtime.
Here are some docs about the two approaches, template vs programmatic:
http://click.sourceforge.net/docs/controls.html#layout
And here is a Velocity example:

There are also a Velocity Dreamweaver plugin but not sure how well it
works.
Hope this helps.
kind regards
bob

Hi Bob,
I read about Click on www.therserverside.com
<http://www.therserverside.com/> and decided to look into it. I
have worked on JSF, Wicket and Tapestry. But I like the simplicity and ease
of use.
At this point, I have a quick question. I looked at form examples. The html
template shows just $form reference.
I would like to build my template using HTML authoring tool like
Dreamweaver, create form and its elements and location in Dreamweaver. And
at run time, I want Click to fill the values in the form element and show it
user. I don't want to build the complete form into page class.
I work with HTML designer who designs the HTML based on customer
requirement.
Is it possible to do in Click?
Thanks,
PJP
