Visual InterDev

template

An HTML or ASP page, or a collection of pages, that acts as a master copy. Templates can be used to generate new pages, saving you the trouble of manually designing the look of the page, and to give a series of pages a similar look and feel. You can also switch templates for an existing page to quickly change its appearance.

When you create new files based on a template, the text in the template is replicated in the new file. A template can also include replaceable parameters that query the user for custom information when the new file is created. For information about creating your own templates, see Creating Custom Templates.

A guide for Web pages in which elements such as heading locations, background image, colors, have already been designed.
