Re: When to use a sub-web?



A Subweb is useful when you have a large web site that is sub-divided into
sections, and you don't want to have to open or publish the entire site to
work on one section of it. It is also useful when you want to have multiple
web sites, but only want to pay for one domain. It is also useful when
working with multiple web applications, as a Subweb will have its own
Application space. But in your case, I don't believe it's needed. Even if
you have ASP pages in your web, PHP is a separate application, and can run
in the same web as ASP.

Hi,

Appreciate if anyone can provide for when will be a good time to use a
sub-web?

For example, we recently added a blog software (developed with PHP scripts
and using MySQL) to our FrontPage (using Win 2003) web, and it has its own
index.php and so on.

We have done all the necessary customizations and now is ready to launch.

However, it just came to my mind that should we set up a sub web for the
blog (since we also open it for users to post articles in addition to
reply) or we can retain as what we are doing now, just putting it in a
folder and activate it from there.

Should have been asked this question earlier, but in any case, appreciate
your kind advise.
