The front page of a newspaper typically contains the day’s biggest story, usually with a large headline. It can also tease other stories inside the edition.
The back pages of a magazine are where less prominent articles or advertisements appear. In the broader sense, the term can be used to suggest that something is less important or not as newsworthy as an item on the “front pages.”
Mad founder Al Jaffee was famous for his back-page creations such as the fold-ins – colored paper panels with a satiric answer and image which could be read by folding in the side of the newspaper vertically. The newspaper also ran a regular feature called the fold-out, where readers were asked to bend the pages of the magazine horizontally to reveal a hidden picture or answer.
Initially, FrontPage required a set of server-side extensions known as FrontPage Server Extensions (FPSE) to work with web servers. FPSE was updated several times to support various versions of Windows and Microsoft’s Internet Information Services (IIS). With FrontPage 2003, the FPSE technology was replaced with a more stable version called Dynamic Web Templates. Also, FrontPage 2003 introduced a Split View option which allows users to code in Code View and preview in Design View without having to switch between the two views for each review. In addition, a new Quick Tag Editor and Code Snippets were added to reduce the time needed to write HTML code for Web pages.
