The HTML Composer allows you to graphically create an HTML launch page that incorporates forms, reports, graphs, and Web objects. You can also directly edit HTML code using the HTML Editor or a third party editor. Optionally, you can invoke Maintain procedures using hyperlinks. The HTML Composer is fully integrated with JavaScript and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS).

When creating an HTML launch page with the HTML Composer, you can do the following:

• Build an launch page that includes push buttons, hyperlinks, and other objects that launch other WebFOCUS reports in your application.
• Create a launch page for one or more reports that contain parameters.
• Create a launch page for WebFOCUS Maintain procedures, or run reports and Maintain procedures from the same HTML page.
• Create a complete report by adding multiple reports and graphs into a single HTML formatted report.
• Create an advanced report layout by including images, frames, and other Web elements.
• Change the location, size, and properties of all objects in your layout.
• Set background, font, and other properties in the Style Composer tool.

You can create procedures and HTML forms in one integrated process with the HTML Composer. When you save your layout, both the procedure file (.fex) and the HTML file are saved in their respective Project folders. You can deploy both files with your project and they will retain their relationship.
