Standard Component Reference
apex:outputField
Visualforce page. To override the display of custom help, use the <apex:outputField> in the body of an
<apex:pageBlockSectionItem>.
The Rich Text Area data type can only be used with this component on pages running Salesforce.com API versions greater than 18.0.
This component supports HTML pass-through attributes using the "html-" prefix. Pass-through attributes are attached to the generated
container <span> tag.
Example
<!-- For this example to render properly, you must associate the Visualforce page
with a valid opportunity record in the URL.
For example, if 001D000000IRt53 is the opportunity ID, the resulting URL should be:
https://Salesforce_instance/apex/myPage?id=001D000000IRt53
See the Visualforce Developer's Guide Quick Start Tutorial for more information. -->
<apex:page standardController="Opportunity" tabStyle="Opportunity">
<apex:pageBlock>
<apex:pageBlockSection title="Opportunity Information">
<apex:outputField value="{!opportunity.name}"/>
<apex:outputField value="{!opportunity.amount}"/>
<apex:outputField value="{!opportunity.closeDate}"/>
</apex:pageBlockSection>
