Dynamic sites, pages and web forms
Let Adobe Contribute users edit dynamic content
When a Contribute user edits a page containing dynamic content or invisible elements (such as scripts and comments),
Contribute displays the dynamic content and invisible elements as yellow markers. By default, Contribute users can’t
select or delete these markers.
If you want Contribute users to be able to select and delete dynamic content and other invisible elements from a page,
you can change permission-group settings to allow them to do so; Contribute users normally can never edit dynamic
content, even when you allow them to select it.
Note: Using some server technologies, you can display static text using a server tag or function. To allow Contribute users
to edit the static text in a dynamic page that uses such a server technology, place the static text outside of the server tags.
For more information, see Administering Adobe Contribute.
