Creating and managing HTML snippets | Zoho Creator Help

Creating and managing HTML snippets

Snippets are stand-alone, re-usable code pieces that can add additional functionality.  An HTML snippet is a small portion of source code in HTML. They can be used to build different elements (like a list view, different styled buttons, text display, customized search bar and so on).

Adding an HTML snippet to your page

  1. Edit your app.
  2. Navigate to the  Design  tab and open the  page builder .
  3. In the page builder, click  Snippets  on the left, then drag and drop the  HTML Snippet  on to the required position on your page. The  HTML Snippet  editor will appear.

  4. Add the required HTML code. Below image shows a reference code to filter and display record details using record ID in the HTML snippet.

  5. Click  Save  and close the editor.
  6. Access your live page and the respective snippet will be displayed.

Mobile-specific parameters

The HTML snippet allows you to embed forms and reports in it via the <div> and <iframe> tags. By their nature, these tags optimize your end user's web browser experience of the target component. Also,
