HTML report template variables

The variables for the HTML report templates can only be used in the appropriate template files.

HTML report template variables are used in a similar way to HTML tags. Unlike HTML tags they do not need to be enclosed in angle brackets (< >), although they can be used as attribute values. For example, MFTAG:IMAGEFILE: can be included in the SRC attribute of the \<IMG\> HTML tag:

\<IMG SRC="MFTAG:IMAGEFILE:"\>.
