Pages are used to display information in a way that is similar to how Web pages look. However, pages can be used in both a Notes and Web application. Pages can be used to display company information or graphics or to provide links to other applications or Web sites. Using this design element, you can create sophisticated Web pages without having to write HTML source code.
Note
As with most application development tools, there are many ways to build a Web page using the Lotus Domino Designer. In addition to pages, you can also use forms, HTML, JavaScript, and other related technologies to build a Web application or Web page.
