The Web+ language can be extended by building custom tags. There are many existing tags available to Web+ developers

If you are a developer, and would like to build a custom tag, we can provide you with the necessary tools to do so

Building custom tags in Web+

The Web+ Application Programming Interface (API) is a C++ based API for creating custom tags. These custom tags are implemented as DLLs for Windows or dynamic loading library(.so) for Unix platforms. They have the following capabilities:

• Handles any number of custom parameters
• Generates Web+ queries for interfacing with non-ODBC based
  information sources
• Dynamically generates HTML to be returned to the client
• Sets variables within the Web+ application page from which they are called

Compiling/Installing Web+ Custom Tags

On Windows platform the Web+ custom tag is a DLL file. On the Unix platform, the custom tag is a dynamic loading libary file (e.g. file_namd.so)
