What is difference between Page and Web?

[Dancer]

I have published many, many sites over the years writing my own HTML.
But discovered that FrontPage is a very easy way to update my sites as
well as write new ones.

But what an idiot! I do not understand the difference between:
File/New/Page and File/New/Web. Under what conditions do I choose one
over the other?

Thanks.

Rougly one could say:

Web = website = group of pages that belong together.
Page = a single page in a web.

You could have a 'flower' web that includes the pages 'rose' 'tullip'
etcetera.

In FP, "new page" just adds a page or page template to the current web.
"New web" starts an entirely separate web (or web template) in another
location, with a few minimal pages and folders.
