Web Items 

Definition

Web items are objects that obtain data from data providers and make the data available as HTML. Web items have attributes such as header, width, height, and create navigation links. You use parameters or specific commands to change these attributes.

If the data, the navigational status, or the attributes change, the HTML for the Web item is regenerated. A Web item must always be assigned to a data provider.
