HTML file. They are useful to add special features such as those offered by jQuery and its
plugins, or MooTools. Style sheets are also added to the <head> and are used just as they
would be used in a regular web page.
Web pages
Web pages (also called Web sections) are part of the Web context (see "Web Context" on the
previous page) in a template.
The Web context outputs one 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. Style sheets are also added to the <head> and are used just as they
would be used in a regular web page.
A Web context can contain multiple templates. When generating output from the Web context,
however, only one of the Web templates can be merged with each record. Set the 'default' Web
section (see "Setting a default Web page for output" on page344) before generating Web
output; also see "Generating Web output" on page839.
Creating a Web page
When creating a 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 page336.
Other approaches are described below, in "Adding a Web page" below.
Adding a Web page
When a Web template is created (see "Creating a Web template with a Wizard" on page336),
only one Web section is added to it. A Web context may contain various templates, but per
record only one of those can be used to generate output.
It is not possible to add a Web section to an existing Web context with the help of a Template
Wizard.
To provide alternative content for the web page, you could use Conditional Content (see
"Showing content conditionally" on page519), or Snippets and a script (see the Help topics
