Binding controls to functions

After you drag a button or hypertext link to the page surface, you can bind that control to an existing event handler or to an event handler that the Page Designer creates:

If the Page Designer creates an event handler in the page handler and gives you access to that page-handler function, the name of the function is the tool-assigned button ID plus the string "Action". If the name is not unique to the page handler, the Page Designer appends a number to the function name.
