To make changes to the general style, the 'look-and-feel', of the pages across your whole site (the Page Layout), you can edit the settings in the configuration boxes on the left-hand side of this Page Layout tab.

This  version of XSitePro gives you total control over an unprecedented nine  different sections of a typical web page, each configurable using the Page Layout tab controls. 

Here are brief descriptions of the nine sections within your Page Layout:

• Header  - This is located at the very top of the page. Often it will include a logo or header graphic that includes the web site name.
    
• Info-Bar  - This is a horizontal section of the page in which you can insert navigation, banner graphics, adsense or other elements. It sits directly below the Header panel and so commands a very important piece of your page's real-estate.
    
• Left Panel - Under the Header and to the left of the Main Panel where the main body copy of the web page appears. Here you will often find links to all of the important pages on a web site, as well as other 'persistent' elements: mailing-list sign-up forms, advertisements, etc.
    
• Main Panel Header - Immediately above the Main Panel is the Main Panel Header. This panel only spans the width of the main panel itself (unlike the main Header Panel, which stretches across the whole page, not just the Main Panel). Suitable uses for the Main Panel Header might include navigational elements, graphics, advertising or textual elements - all of which will appear in this same position on every page, just above your Main Panel content.
    
• Main Panel - This is where the body copy for your web site will appear. This is of course one of the most important elements of your page - the informational element - and not something that can be pre-written for you. You need to spend time on your Main Panel content, creating genuine, quality content (or sourcing ready-written content of comparable quality). The 'Pages' you create within your site are what populate the Main Panel.
    
• Main Panel Footer - At the bottom of the Main Panel is the Main Panel Footer. With XSitePro you have a choice of whether you have a footer that stretches the full length of the page or whether the footer excludes the left and right column and appears immediately under the main body of text. You can also have both at the same time if you wish. For example, you may want to have various links to pages appear under the main body copy and a copyright message on the page footer.
    
• Right Panel - This is the space between the Main Panel and the page margins. People often include testimonials or banner advertisements in this section.
    
• Page Footer - This is the section that appears immediately below the left and right columns and the main body of the page. Often it will include a copyright message and may include a reminder of the web page URL. You may also wish to use the footer for links to those pages which (while important to some sites) you don't wish to 'clutter' the main navigational menu(s) with. Privacy Policy and Terms & Conditions pages are good examples of such pages.
    
• Margins  - These appear on both the left and right side of the web page although with XSitePro you can, if you wish, choose to have the page left justified and only have a margin on the right hand side of the page. You can also specify how much of the background you can see, if any, above and/or below the page.
