Adding New Pages to Your Web

You may add new pages in two ways.

1. Copy an existing page.

This is useful if you have inserted a logo and made other layout changes that you want to apply to all the new pages that you are creating. Open a page that has the layout the way you want it, then go to File/Save As. Save the page under a new name - be sure to change the page title as well! Then, go to Navigation View and drag your new page into the navigation structure.

2. Use the Page Template.

Go to File/New/Page (2000) or File/New/Page or Web (2002). In 2002, click on "New from Page Template" in the right column. Browse to the page template you wish to use and click OK. This will bring up a new page in FrontPage. You will need to save this page into your web. Then, go to Navigation View and drag your new page into the navigation structure.

 
The Web Template 
Your web template consists of 16+ pages. All of the extra images are contained within the "Images" folder within the template.

To create your new web, go to File / New / Web and select the appropriately named web template from the list of those available.

FrontPage then makes a copy of the template. You can easily make your changes and your original template remains unchanged and can be used again.
Saving Files:
When you save files, you want to be sure of two things:

Change the "Page Title" by right clicking on an empty area of the page. Select "Page Properties" from the list. Locate the Title box and insert the new text.

The "File Name" should end with .htm or .html, and should have no spaces or some special characters (like slashes). You can change your file name within the folders view.
