Properties view associated with Rich Page Editor

The Properties view that is associated with Rich Page Editor displays specific information for the currently selected tag in a web page. You can use the Properties view to edit properties that are related to the appearance of tags in a web browser. For example, you can change CSS style information, default attribute values, Dojo properties, and jQuery properties, as required.

You can use the Properties view to edit JavaScript, HTML, or JSP tags when the Design, Source, or Split view is open in Rich Page Editor. Changes in the Properties view are displayed in Rich Page Editor when you change the cursor focus or press Enter. If you update tags in the Source view of Rich Page Editor, your changes take effect immediately in the Properties view.

Breadcrumb navigation

When you select a node in Rich Page Editor, the Properties view uses a breadcrumb trail to provide context for the selected node:
