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.
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" below and "Capture OnTheGo template wizards"
on page385.
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 page294), the Web context folder is created along
with other files that are specific to an Web context; see "Web Context" on page356.
Many of the content elements that are available for all three contexts are particularly suitable for
web pages; see "Content elements" on page407. Web templates are personalized just like any
other template; see "Variable Data" on page534.
Only one Web section is created at the start, but you can add as many Web sections as you
need; see "Web pages" on page357. 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 page884.
Creating a Web template with a Wizard
With the Designer you can design Web templates and output them through Workflow or as an
attachment to an email when generating Email output.
Capture On The Go templates are a special kind of Web templates; see "Capture OnTheGo
template wizards" on page385.
A Web Template Wizard helps you create a Web page that looks good on virtually any browser,
device and screen size.
