XPFrontPage builds Web sites
• A Web site consists of Web pages, files, and folders as well as specific FrontPage server extension support files that all work together so Internet users can view a site correctly.
• Web sites can be disk-based or server-based. – Disk-based sites can be stored on floppy disks or on a hard
drive – Server-based sites have your files and folders stored on a Web
server.
