Tutorial - Using the templates

These templates were designed for internal use by Web Services in developing economical Web sites that follow campus, Web and Section 508 accessibility standards. However, there is such a demand for professional-looking designs, that we decided to make these available to the campus.

As a result, these templates are fairly sophisticated and rely on server side include files and cascading style sheets. If you aren't familiar with these technologies, these templates may appear somewhat mysterious at first. The good news is that you don't have to know anything about those technologies to make the templates work for you!

However, it does mean that there are a lot of pieces to these templates, and that you need to have them all to make them work.
