Refresh Tab of the Control Property Editor

The Refresh tab is available on the Edit Box, HyperLink, Image, and Text controls. Use this tab to specify the form data that should be displayed in the control, and define when the data should be refreshed.

Note: Instead of typing or pasting text into the Contents, Image Url, and Display text fields, you can use the string builder tool to insert references to table fields and form controls, and to insert HTML tags. For more information, see Using the String Builder Tool.
Element Description
Contents Enter the content that should be displayed in the Edit Box control.
Image Url Enter the URL of the image that should be displayed in the Image control.
Display text Enter the text that should be displayed in the HyperLink or Text control.
On page load If this check box is selected, the content is retrieved when the form is initially displayed at runtime or in the form preview.
Note: This check box is automatically selected if the Contents, Image Url, or Display text field does not refer to any data fields, and if the form does not include any buttons, images, or hyperlinks.
On data change If this check box is selected, the content is updated when the field that maps to the Contents, Image Url, or Display text field is changed at runtime or in the form preview.
Note: This check box is disabled if the fields listed above do not refer to any data field.
On click In the drop-down list box, select one of the buttons, images, or hyperlinks that are on this form. The content is updated when the control is clicked at runtime or in the form preview.
Note: This check box is disabled and the drop-down list is hidden if the form does not include any button, image, or hyperlink.
