Troy,

here's a short explanation how the page are organized and what's important to 
know.
Basically you have to know two dirs and some files:
	Dirs ate layouts and tiles.
- -layouts contains the page-wide template. It's the basic HTML structure which 
is the same for all pages.
- -tiles: Contains the header and footer definitions

Changing things side-wide can be done by doing the changeonly once in these 
files I mentioned above.

Files: Edit the JSP pages (passagestudy.jsp etc.) to implement or change 
functionality. Changes to single pages have to be done in the JSP files 
itself.
In the JSP files we have areas which are merged into the page-template in 
layouts/. This makes it easy to concentrate on the real content and helps the 
developers and designers to do page-wide changes quickly.

I hope this helps a bit. If you need more info please let me know,
Joachim
