Site Creation Tool
Description
The Site Creation Tool
feature in your Control Panel allows you to create your web site quickly
and easily. It is an alternative to using other applications, such as
Microsoft FrontPage, Macromedia Dreamweaver or Netscape Composer. The tool
is self-guided and self-explanatory, but some detailed instructions are
provided in this section to help you in setting up your personalized site.
