8.1 About Templates

Templates are the files used to place and arrange content on a Web site. Templates are HTML files; page templates are complete files with HEAD and BODY tags, while subtemplates and region templates are partial HTML sections, placed within a page template between the BODY tags, and are used only for content related to the body. The way Site Studio handles Web sites is unlike typical Web site development tools. One area where this is clearly seen is in the use of page templates, subtemplates, and region templates. You can add whatever static content and dynamic content you like to any one of these templates. However, as you spend more time with each of these templates, you see why it makes more sense to add relatively little static content directly to the page. Adding content directly to the page limits reusability and makes localization more difficult, among other things. The content that you add directly to a template is likely to be information that remains static, or consistent, across the site. It is what establishes the basic look and feel of the site, and may include such things as background colors, background images, and HTML tables to position text and graphics.
