What is WebHub?
WebHub is a complete site development framework, including an application that
can be used both as a "designer/editor," and as the actual cgi/isapi program serving
the
dynamic site.
Both the WebHub Components and
WebHub Power HTML include
a generic application server which can be used as a "designer" or "editor." The
HTML editing environment is simply tailored for use in the WebHub environment -- the shortcuts
and color-syntax highlighting are all meant for use with WebHub.
WebHub is not a WYSIWYG design tool like FrontPage. You might still use a tool
like that to make the initial prototype of your web page. You would then bring that
code into WebHub, and put in macros that provide a variety of dynamic features.
The range of features depends entirely on which WebHub application server you use.
WebHub adds versatility, strength, and depth to HTML authors of all experience levels.
WebHub supports the collaboration of artist and programmer: WebHub was
designed with the idea that both page layout designers and
database/application programmers are working together to build dynamic web
sites. WebHub facilitates cooperation by allowing the HTML author to
maintain HTML on the outside, while the programmer maintains the
applications on the inside.
WebHub saves time and great ideas! You can build a "library" of favorite
reusable HTML chunk files. WebHub also saves an unlimited number of macros
which are expanded when pages are requested.
Export to static HTML pages: You can use the WebHub system to organize your
pages and track your macros, and then use the 'Generate All' menu option to generate a series
of static HTML files which you can use with any ISP. The benefit to you
is that if you want to change a page footer, or adjust the location of
your graphics files, you'll only have to make one edit and then regenerate
all the pages with that change.
