General

• Font: specifies the cell's font face, size, emphasis, etc.

• Font Colour: specifies the cell's font colour.

• Background: specifies the cell’s background colour.

• Borders: specifies the cell's border type.

• Transparent: makes the cell's background transparent, so that the colour of the underlying screen shows through.

• Width: specifies the cell's width.

• Height: specifies the cell's height.

HTML

• Code in line (<TR>): specifies the HTML properties for this cell's <TR> tag.

• Code in cell (<TD>): specifies the HTML properties for this cell's <TD> tag.

• Code before: specifies text or HTML script for this cell, to appear just in front of its caption.

• Code after: specifies text or HTML script for this cell, to appear just after its caption.

• Code in control: specifies the HTML properties for this cell's input control. The following cells generate different HTML control tags:

  • Open: <TEXTAREA>

  • Numeric: <INPUT>

  • Combo Box: <SELECT>

  • List Box: <SELECT>

• Input type: allows you to specify special input types supported by HTML 5, such as password (<input type ="password">) and number. The available input types are listed here at http://www.w3schools.com/html/html5_form_input_types.asp.

• Act as an error control: specifies that the cell's controls should act as an error control. This means the cell's settings will be affected if there is an error associated with it in Internet Settings (so, for example, you could add an exclamation mark at the end of the control if there is an error or make its background red...).

• Generate font settings in HTML: generates the font settings specified in the general properties section as HTML (Font, Font Color, Background,  Transparent, Width, Height).
