Construction Material Template |
In addition to providing descriptive information and documentation, the master version of this page is also a template for construction-material pages on this site. The template features depend on the use of Microsoft FrontPage for their development and maintenance. The features are only fully available when these web pages are accessed using Microsoft FrontPage.
This page is can be used as a boilerplate for a full page based on the default style for construction-material pages of this site. In Microsoft FrontPage, make a copy of the page and then derive the new page by transformational editing:
Use File / Properties ... to change the title of the page
Change the title in the middle table block at the top of the page.
Change the "grounding block" in the right section of the table to provide the full context of the present page and any version number and time stamp.
Update the creation information in the right section of the page bottom banner.
Delete this text section and the box at the top of the page, replacing it with your own page content.
Introduce your own version history annotations, if desired. Make sure the links in the history are as you want them to be.
The title block -- the table at page top -- can be copied by itself to produce a title block with the correct styles and the automatic inclusion of the correct left-section image for this site.
The construction block -- the table at page bottom -- can be copied by itself to produce a construction block with the correct styles, the automatic inclusion of the left-side Hard Hat image and link, and the "you are navigating ..." information in the center section of the block. The right-side material will be updated automatically by Microsoft Visual Source Safe, but the "created ..." line must be updated manually.
These features are are incorporated in pages by using the FrontPage Insert / Component / Include Page ... menu. The content of the include page will be incorporated where inserted. In addition, any time the included page is updated, so will all places where it has been inserted. When the pages are used outside of FrontPage, they behave as normal web pages with the last-included material shown.
This component creates the table-cell image by inclusion of page
C000004A.htm. The component provides the image associated with this site, a title expressing the name of the site, and a link to the site itself using its official URL. This inclusion works at any level of the site.
This component creates the table-cell image by inclusion of page
C000004B.htm. The component provides the image to be associated with this section's construction areas, if any, along with the name of the construction area (usually "Hard Hat Area") within which this construction material is contained. All links are anchor relative, and the insertion can be used from any level of the site. The root construction center is always the link target.

Orcmid's Lair construction material.This component creates the table-cell text by inclusion of page
C000004C.htm. The component provides the text that we want to have present in the construction block of construction-material pages of this site. Notice that anchor-relative location of the mirror is provided, and it is always assumed that there is a local construction.htm in the same section as any construction material page.
The FrontPage Style inclusion used for this and other non-construction Construction Section pages is in page
C000004e.htm. That page describes how the background and basic styles are set on that page and how they are used from other pages.
