Hi,
I think you misunderstand what is 'static' in a 'static text field'.
You can present completely different content, including references to
different graphics files back on the server, each time a static text field
sends html as its part of the page's html.
The 'static' aspect of it is that normally the html is not that of a form
field, it's just plain text, same as a hard-coded text (including any
references to graphics or links) in your page's .html file. So the user
can't change it or send it back when s/he presses the submit button.
Some of us are using 'static text fields' to produce html that is not
static at all. If you have a declared static text box on your page,
and you force its html to be (for example) <INPUT TYPE=SUBMIT
NAME="Enter_onWebEvent(Enter)" VALUE="Enter">, then your 'static text
field' will actually display as a button that calls back to a page event
method.
