Configuring the HTML Buttons

Top Menu Buttons

In QuikFormsEngine v5.5, all button-related properties are encapsulated within specific objects under the QuikFormsEngine object, grouping all properties associated with each button into a single, organized structure. The table below outlines these properties.

Properties

Property Name	Type	Description	Sub Properties

Property Name	Type	Description	Sub Properties
HTMLButtonSubmit	SubmitButton	Object that configures the Submit button. Sends the form data in value pair format to the SubmitURL (typically a location in your system/platform/application for further processing). Clicking the Submit button also validates required fields if any are included on the form. In other words, forms may not be submitted to any location until the required fields are filled out.	Show (bool): Shows/Hides the button. Title (string): Tooltip for the button. Name (string): Name of the button. SubmitJavascript (string): Javascript to be run when clicking the button. This takes priority over the Form Submission. If provided, the Javascript will be run and the form won't be submitted. SubmitURL (string): URL where the form will be submitted to.
