Adding elements to a content area in a Web page

Prerequisites:
  1. Create a Web project.
  2. Create a page template.
  3. Create a Web page.
  4. Apply a page template to a Web page.
To add elements to a content area by editing a Web page, do the following:
  1. Open the Web page in Page Designer.
  2. You can add various elements to your Web page by dragging and dropping objects from the different drawers in the Palette. You can also add text or images to your content area.
  3. In the Properties view, edit the properties of the tags in your content area. For example, you can set the paragraph level or apply styles to text.
  4. When you have finished adding elements to your Web page, press CTRL+S to save your changes.
Note: If you are going to apply several styles or paragraph types to a content area, it is recommended to insert a content area inside the <BODY> tags of the page template or <TD> tags if the page template is using tables or free layout tables for layout. It is not recommended to insert a content area inside <P> or <SPAN> tags because you may have difficulty formatting text or adding styles to the content area from the page that uses the template. For example, if the content area is within the <P> tag in the page template, then in the Web page based on the page template, you will not be able to do anything that requires changing the <P> tag , such as changing the text in the content area to <H1>.
