The Create Content Tool

---

Using the Create Content tool, you can add rich-text content directly to the page through the integrated HTML editor.

Typically, you would use the Create Content Tool for adding short or simple content, such as captions or labels.

NOTE:  To add complex HTML or large amounts of text, you may prefer to use a third-party HTML or text editing application to create an HTML file, and then place the file's contents on the page using the Insert File tool. See The Insert File Tool and the Insert Image Tool.

The formatted text entered and saved in the editor is saved as a content asset in the Content Asset Management's repository. For more information about the content assets, see About Content Assets.

For general information about the integrated HTML editor, see Fundamentals.

To add HTML directly to a page

1. In the Page Designer view, select the page to which you want to add HTML. (See Step 1 and Step 2 in the To create a navigation link between Microsite Management pages procedure.)
2. From the Page Designer toolbar, drag the Create Content tool to the position on the layout where you want the new content type to appear.
3. In the Create Content dialog box, click Edit HTML.
4. In the editor, type and format text, and add links and graphics.
5. Click Save to save the HTML to the content asset repository and close the HTML Editor.
6. Complete the fields in the Create Content dialog box.

   Some of the fields are described in the table in Step 3 in the To create a link from a page to an external page procedure.

7. Click OK.
