How long does one page in iWeb go?

Question

Hi,
I currently have a website up on freewebs.com and now I have my own domain name and am working on making a new site with iWeb and just started using it the other day.
When you are working on a page within iWeb lets say the Welcome page, are you limited to one page or can you keep on going within that page so it scrolls down. Let's say my first page is really 5 pages do I just keep adding stuff to that first page and it will automatically scroll when someone opens it in their browser (provided they click the down arrow)?
What I'm really asking is, is their a limit to how long your first page is? I hope this is making sense here.

I don't think that a page in iWeb is limited in it's length. There maybe a limit that apple has placed on it, but it is well past 6000 pixels. You can change how long your page is by opening the inspector and clicking on the second tab from the left. This will open your "page" dialouge. Edit the length of your page by increasing the number in the "content height" field. About the automatic updating of the length in your page; that does happen, but only when you move certain things. iWeb will not lengthen your page when you keep adding more stuff into it. It will increase the length, however, if you litterally move the position of something that is a default item in your selected template. For instance, iWeb will update the length of your page if you move the position of that default text field (wich is in French or somethinng) beyond the current page's "page length" limitation. You can see more clearly the boundaries wich you've set for yourself by changing temporarily the "browser background" color (also in the "page" dialouge in the inspector.
One other tip: (this is not at all related) Personally I don't like the look or configuration of the links in Apple's provided navigation menu. I choose not to display the nav menu and I use my own. It takes more work - you have to worry about style and all of that in addition to coordinating all those links. so let's say you use a tab configuration like i do. I have five tabs, and I have about 40 pages on my website. That means I had to make 200 links just for my custom nav menu. Coordinating them to make sure each one is correctly configured is another thing. I think it's worth it though. - And the copy and paste technology invented 3 billion years ago has been used more and more by me to complete that task! check it out if you like at DesignNashville.com.
