Tildes in HTML

Use tilde placeholders in HTML report pages for dynamic values at publication time.

How Tildes Work in HTML Pages

Any tilde that appears in an HTML page will be translated at the time of report publication to its assigned value. If a tilde has not been assigned a value globally, it will remain as-is. However, all tildes present in an HTML file can be defined when creating a publication, so they do not have to be globally created.

Example

The example below shows how a tilde can be used in an HTML page title:

<!DOCTYPE html>
<html>
<head>
<title>Assessment report for ~companyname~</title>
<meta name="description" content="Tilde example">
<meta name="keywords" content="Tilde example">
<meta name="robots" content="INDEX, FOLLOW">

The tilde ~companyname~ is used in the page title. The benefit is being able to reuse the same HTML page across many reports — the company name can be set when a publication is scheduled.

The value can either be set globally and/or set at the time a publication is scheduled.
