Default Web Parts

Each Web Part serves a particular need within a Web Part page. A Web Part page can contain as few or as many Web Parts as it is formatted to contain, and individual Web Parts can be set up to connect to one another, providing a unique presentation of data.

Content Editor Web Part

This Web Part is used to add formatted text, images, tables, and hyperlinks to a Web Part page. The information can be added in HTML format using the Source Editor, the Rich Text Editor, or a Content Link.
