Working with block elements
The functional units in database-driven content blocks are called block elements. Each block element performs some unique function in the block, such as displaying the value of one database field. (A block can also contain static, non-database-driven elements, but these are not considered block elements.)
When you complete the Database Wizard, the finished block has a certain number and composition of block elements. However, the mix of elements in the block is not fixed; you can change it at any time. You can remove unnecessary elements, add elements you had not previously planned to use, or replace existing elements with others. In addition, you can change an output element so that it displays the contents of a different database field, and you can modify various properties of an input element.
