When you create a new page in your web, you will most likely have the option of choosing from a blank page or one of several template sets provided by your administrator.

Templates are pre-made web pages that give you a starting point for your own page.

There are three main types of templates: Open, Limited, and Locked.The types of template available for your use are determined by your administrator, and it's not always possible to tell the template type until you are actually editing it in your website.

An open template allows you to insert, delete, move, and modify any of the elements on the page.

A limited template allows you to insert elements and to modify, move, or delete certain elements, while other elements may be modified but not moved or deleted.

In a locked template you can modify certain elements, but you cannot insert, move, or delete any elements.

Template locking is not available in the IE Editor - if enabled, pages will be completely unlocked in this editor.
