Introduction

A general overview of Riverside Internet's WebSolution content management system. The general structure of a WebSolution website is introduced. You will learn about web page types, web page zones and web page elements.

WebSolution is a powerful and easy to use content management system written entirely in-house by Riverside Internet. WebSolution enables users to build dynamic websites in an intuitive and straight forward way. WebSolution is entirely browser based and does not require any client-side software to be installed. WebSolution employs the latest web standards (XHTML and CSS), which helps to promote websites up search engine listings, increase accessibility and decrease page load times.

WebSolution websites are created in a hierarchical fashion, with every site containing at least one page - the root homepage. Under the root homepage, further web pages may exist and these web pages may also have pages beneath them. Web pages are divided into zones such as header, footer, left, right and main and these zones contain elements such as text and images, forums, feedback forms, polls and photo albums.
