Maintain Web Page

   

This form is used to create and maintain web pages.

A web page is used to display style elements, applications, headers, images and any other web elements that are required in the web page. For example: it could contain a web page head and body, an application, some text (font) and image and a header template containing a menu bar.

The web page can be used as an alternative to adding elements in Connect Builder. Web elements can be embedded into the page, and positioned as required using HTML tags. This web page is then used in Callista Connect or optionally add extra elements such as styles through Connect Builder.

For more details on the creation of web pages refer to the specialist topic Understanding the Web Administrator.
