Web
With the Designer you can create one or more Web templates and merge the template with a
data set to generate personal web pages.
The Web context is the Web output channel and the folder in the Designer that can contain one
or more Web templates. CaptureOnTheGo templates are a special kind of Web templates. They
are stored in the Web folder as well.
The Web context outputs an HTML web page that contains the HTML text and all the resources
necessary to display it.
JavaScript files are added to the <head> in the generated HTML file. They are useful to add
special features such as those offered by jQuery and its plugins, or MooTools.
Stylesheets are also added to the <head> and are used just as they would be used in a regular
web page.
It is advisable to follow design guidelines for web pages, so that they are likely to look good in
different browsers and on different devices and screen sizes. When you start with a Web
Template Wizard, the Foundation framework is added to the template, to guarantee just that;
see "Creating a Web template with a Wizard" on page 432 and "Capture OnTheGo (COTG)
templates" on page 436.
When a Web template is created, either with a Wizard or by adding the Web context to an
existing template (see "Adding a context" on page 222), the Web context folder is created along
with other files that are specific to an Web context; see "Web Context" below.
Many of the content elements that are available for all three contexts are particularly suitable for
web pages; see "Content elements" on page 223. Web templates are personalized just like any
other template; see "Variable Data" on page 336.
Only one Web section is created at the start, but you can add as many Web sections as you
need; see "Web pages" on the next page. Note that when the Designer merges a data set to
generate output from the Web context, it can merge only one of the templates with each record;
see "Generating Web output" on page 323.
Web Context
In the Designer the Web context is the folder that contains Web page templates.
