Server behaviors
• The multiple value indicates that the participant is optional and multiple copies of it can be associated with the
server behavior. Any arguments that are unique to this participant are not used when grouping participants because
they might have different values.
• The data value is a nonstandard participant that is used by programmers as a repository for additional group data.
It is ignored by everything else.
Participant EDML files
These tags and attributes are valid within the EDML participant files.
Description
This tag contains all the specifications for a single participant.
Parent
None.
Type
Block tag.
Required
Yes.
attributes
The following items are valid attributes of the participant tag.
version
Description
This attribute defines which version of Dreamweaver server behavior processing the current server behavior targets.
For Dreamweaver CS3, the version number is 9. If no version is specified, Dreamweaver assumes version 7. For this
release of Dreamweaver, all groups and participants that the Server Behavior Builder creates have the version attribute
set to 0.0.
Note: The participant version attribute overrides the group version attribute if they are different. But, the participant file
will use the group version attribute if the participant does not specify one.
For participant files, this attribute determines if code-block merging should occur. For participants without this
attribute (or have it set to 4 or earlier), the inserted code blocks are not merged with other code blocks on the page.
Participants that have this set to version 5 or later are merged with other code blocks on the page when possible. Please
note that code-block merging occurs only for participants above and below the HTML tag.
