Creating HTML Pages

From time to time, you may need to create a static web page on your team site. Although you could create the page externally and link to it with a Page Viewer Web Part, you can also take advantage of the built-in HTML features of SharePoint Services. You can create a page by adding text, pictures, and tables through your web browser without writing any HTML code. By default, all of the web pages you create are stored in the shared documents library.

To create an HTML page in SharePoint Services:

  1. Click Create in the top menu bar located at the top of the page.

  2. Click Basic Web Page to open up the New Basic Page form.

Figure 3-4 shows the New Basic Page, which is used to create new HTML pages for your team site:

  1. Type a name for your web page in the Name text field. Note that your page is always given the extension .aspx even though the page only contains basic HTML.

  2. If you want to overwrite an existing file with the same name, select the "Overwrite if file already exists?" checkbox.

  3. Select where you want to save the web page from the Document Library drop-down list.

  4. Click Create.
