Templates & Layout

This page has a complete different layout and appearance than the rest of this site. ExSite allows you to configure any number of grpahic designs and layouts, and apply them where ever you like.

With many simple templating systems, all you can do is sandwich a block of content between a header and a footer. With ExSite templates, you can define any number of content objects and place them anywhere on the page. For example, in addition to the main page body (which you are currently reading), this page also defines several other content objects:

The site logo, which we have replaced on this page only with a cute dog.
The sidebar, which we we have replaced on this page with some Lorem Ipsum text.
Two special content boxes, shown below.
A custom page footer, at the bottom.

Each of these content elements is completely separate from the others, and can be updated independently. Depending on how the content is configured, it can be shared with other pages, or even with other web sites.

Information

Welcome to the ExSite Webware demonstration site. This is a sandbox where we play with and show you some of the features of ExSite Webware, from the regular web-surfer's perspective. If you are interested in how a site such as this is put together on the back-end, contact us at . We do give out the keys to this site from time to time, so that prospective users can take it for a test drive. This is a good way to see what it is like to update and manage content on a fully-configured site.

Because we give out the keys to this site, you may notice odd bits of content here and there. Some features may appear to be disabled entirely, and new pages may appear. That's just because our test drivers sometimes bring the site back with a few dings and dents -- that's what it's for. We regularly refresh the demonstration site content to make sure the content doesn't get too beat up.
