In general, a page wizard creates a single page, while a web wizard creates several interconnected pages. However, this distinction is not enforced. A wizard is not restricted to certain actions because of its type. However, page wizards are always run from the FrontPage Editor, while web wizards are always run from the FrontPage Explorer.
A web wizard typically presents a series of dialog pages to collect user input, and then generates one or more HTML pages in the FrontPage temp directory (typically “C:\Program Files\Microsoft FrontPage\temp”) based on the selected options. These pages are then uploaded to the current web, along with any static resources, such as images that are kept in the wizard directory. If a user selects the option to create a new FrontPage web rather than adding to the current one, the FrontPage Explorer will create a new web before starting the wizard.
