Using -HTMLFORM

In the deployment environment, the -HTMLFORM command enhances the functionality of your Web page by enabling you to include HTML commands in your procedures. You can use all standard HTML elements in your Web page, including character styling, hyperlinks, graph images, tables, forms, and frames. The content must be self-contained in a single answer set.
