Named fields insert common HTML code, such as a common input field or a page header or footer, in a Web page. (Each named field refers to a corresponding INSERT section.) A named field is delineated with %%.

%%Country%%
%%-pagefooter%%

A named field can include or not include a dash. A named field without a dash, such as %%Label%% might have a special meaning as a certificate field. Its special meaning depends on the section in which it appears. (See Relationship between CGIs and the pkiserv.tmpl file for more information.)

A named field with a dash, such as %%-pagefooter%%, has no special meaning. PKISERV treats it simply as HTML code to insert. Any special meaning the named field might have, based on the section in which it is contained, is ignored. For example, in a TEMPLATE CONTENT section (see TEMPLATE sections) if you specify %%-pagefooter%%, -pagefooter is not considered a certificate field name. However, the INSERT section with the name -pagefooter is included in the HTML page displayed to the end user.
