Changing a Dialog Title

This section contains several basic examples of changing page and dialog panel titles.  They illustrate basic HTML layout page editing and properties file manipulation.

Solution Approach

Pages created from page templates based on the underlying database tables have appropriate titles, such as "Show Record", "Edit Record", and "Show Table".  Use the tag’s Properties dialog to change the text of the Dialog Title component.
