Template for Basic page

[jverhoog]

I use Sharepoint Portal Server, and I change the layout of my pages by changing the aspx files in \Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\Web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE

This works well. The only problem that I have is that I don't know which aspx files are used in which situation. For example: I want to change the layout of the header of a Basic Page. Which file is the template for a Basic Page?

To avoid confusion:
* I do not use Sharepoint Services, but Sharepoint Portal Server.
* I do not used Frontpage, because it causes the pages to be unghosted, which I don't want

i believe its this one:

C:\Program Files\Common Files\Microsoft Shared\web server extensions\60\TEMPLATE\<LCID>\STS\DOCTEMP\BLANKPGS

dont forget to use the correct <LCID>.

Yes, thank you. That was exactly what I was looking for.

But is there a list describing what each template is for?

Not that i know of... but the naming is clear enough for me.

One note: If you edit the original files instead of making a new set of definitions (see the manual & SDK) you risk your changes being overriden by possible updates.
