Parts of a Page

SharePoint setup creates a new, mostly empty web site with a default Home page that looks like Figure 1 or 2, depending on which product your business has.
Figure 1: Default WSS Home page.

Figure 2: Default MOSS home page.

The parts of a page labeled in Figures 1 and 2 are common throughout SharePoint:
· The top link bar contains tabs that link to sub sites within SharePoint. Use sub sites to organize content and control who can see or change that content.
· The Quick Launch displays links to lists, libraries, and sub sites.
· Libraries are collections of documents within a web site.
· Lists are tables of data.
· The Recycle Bin allows you to restore content that was recently deleted – much the same as the Windows Recycle Bin.
· Search is used to find information within a web site.
· Advanced search finds information across web sites or by topic. This feature is only in MOSS.
· Web parts display views of lists, libraries, or other content on a page.
