Custom Components

All IntraWeb components are written using an open API that easily allows you to write your own components and add them to IntraWeb just as you can with Delphi. To further facilitate the writing of components the source code for all IntraWeb components in included, even in the evaluation edition of IntraWeb.

For further information on creating custom components please see the section "Writing Custom Components" in this manual.

Embedding Raw HTML

You can also embed your own HTML in your IntraWeb application without writing a component by using the TIWText component. Simply drop a TIWText component on your form. Set the RawText property to True, and the WantReturns to False. Finally, put the HTML in the Lines property and your custom HTML will be output as part of your form.

HTML Templates

HTML templates (simply referred to as templates elsewhere) can be used to add advanced HTML into your application and customize the look of your application. Please see the section on layout managers for more details.
