An area of a page that uses styling similar to the appearance of a Salesforce detail page, but without any default content.
This component supports HTML pass-through attributes using the "html-" prefix. Pass-through attributes are attached to the generated container <div> tag.
<!-- For this example to render properly, you must associate the Visualforce page with a valid account record in the URL. For example, if 001D000000IRt53 is the account ID, the resulting URL should be: https://Salesforce_instance/apex/myPage?id=001D000000IRt53 See the Visualforce Developer's Guide Quick Start Tutorial for more information. --> <!-- Page: --> <apex:page standardController="Account"> <apex:form> <apex:pageBlock title="My Content" mode="edit"> <apex:pageBlockButtons> <apex:commandButton action="{!save}" value="Save"/> </apex:pageBlockButtons> <apex:pageBlockSection title="My Content Section" columns="2"> <apex:inputField value="{!account.name}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!account.site}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!account.type}"/> <apex:inputField value="{!account.accountNumber}"/> </apex:pageBlockSection> </apex:pageBlock> </apex:form> </apex:page>
