IntelliSense to help you. The XLV and the DFWP use Extensible Stylesheet Language for<br />

Transformation (XSLT), which is an open standard commonly used on Web sites. Much<br />

more documentation of XSLT exists than for CAML.<br />

In this exercise, you create an Announcements XLV.<br />

SET UP Using SharePoint Designer, open the team site you used in the previous<br />

exercise if it is not already open.<br />

The Announcement page opens in edit mode, with the workspace tab labeled<br />

AnnouncementsPage.aspx. The page has three rectangles surrounded by a lightblue<br />

border. These are Web Part zones.<br />

Tip Web Part zones are containers for Web Parts. The use of Web Parts and Web Part<br />

zones is discussed in Chapter 4.<br />

5. Click in the first light-blue bordered rectangle.<br />

The light-blue border changes to a blue border and the label Header appears<br />
