Configuring a URL or View parameter that uses an HTML tag attribute other than Name or ID

To define a parameter with the Selector attribute, either Ajax Encryption or Check AJAX Payload for Data Manipulation must be enabled on the URL or View.

Configure a URL or View parameter with the Selector attribute if you want to provide FPS protection to a parameter that uses an HTML tag attribute other than Name or ID.

  1. In the Anti-Fraud Configuration area of your profile, click URL List.

    The URL List opens.

  2. In the URL List, click the relevant URL or View.

    The URL/View Properties screen opens.

  3. In the URL Configuration (or View Configuration) area, select Parameters.

    The Parameters list is displayed.

  4. Click the Add button.

    The Parameter Settings screen opens.

  5. In the Parameter Name field, assign a name using the CSS selector syntax and ensure that Explicit (and not Wildcard) is selected.

    For example, to configure a parameter with the CSS class myinputs, you need to assign .myinputs as the parameter name.

  6. Select the Enabled check box by Selector.

  7. Click Create.

    The Parameters list is displayed and the parameter that you created is listed.
