After selecting a language, the Web Script Assistant will prompt you to select a template. Various templates exists for two specific tasks, Form Input and Search. When you click on a template name in the list, a sample html page and description of the template will be displayed on the right.

Creating templates

Templates are simply a series of text files that describe what information the assistant should prompt for and the actual HTML template files. A few basic templates are included with MacSQL, but you can create your own. MacSQL looks in /Library/MacSQL/WebTemplates and Library/Application Support/MacSQL/WebTemplates (in your home directory).

Documentation on how to create your own web templates is available from the Runtime Labs website.
