In the context of a form, document or docloop tag, displays the value of an item in the current document. You can set the tag's readonly format using the format attribute. The body of the item tag is not evaluated. To provide update access to an item, use the input tag in the context of a form tag.

Contexts

Valid in:

form, docloop, viewloop, document

<domino:item
id="object variable name"
name="item name"
format="formatting keywords"
timezone="time zone"
locale="<languageCode>_<countryCode>"
debug="true|false"
onfailure="inline|exception"
time="true|false">

The following attributes are optional:

id

If you specify an id name, creates a variable that contains the associated lotus.domino.Item object. The variable created is available for the life of the scope enclosing the tag. The object is available in the page context. If not specified, no programmatic access to the Item object is available.

Name of the item in the document to access.

Format to use to display the item value in read-only mode as specified by the keywords supplied. See Formatting JSP content for a list of available formatting keywords. Default is null - no format.

Locale to use to format the item that displays. If specified, overrides the locale that the browser specifies in the AcceptLang string. Use the following syntax: "<languageCode>_<countryCode>". See Locale codes for more details. By default, uses the first locale specified in the AcceptLang string for the browser.

Time zone to use to display the date. If you do not specify a value, defaults to the time zone of the server (not the browser).
