◆2 About the Page Layout
Below is an example of a typical page (homepage and each section) on this site. We've divided most of the pages into three sections that we call the Header Field, the Content Field and the Footer Field. We're hoping this makes it easier for visitors to use the various functions on the pages and quickly find what they're looking for.

- Type in a word or phrase in the search window and then press Search Site to find what you're looking for.

◆(2) The Content Field
The Content Filed on the homepage gives you an overview of each section and new stuff that's been added, while the Content Fields of each section tell you about specific topics in more detail.
◆(3) The Footer Field
