Web Diagram

The Web Diagram (Figure | 3-5) is another view of the Web application, which shows the pages, the links between pages, and the page variables available on each page. In addition, if Struts or JavaServer Faces technologies are used in the application, this view can include extra information to link the pages and data together as appropriate for the selected technology.

In the RedBank example, the Web Diagram is not used to build the application. Instead, the Web Site Navigation Designer is the tool with which pages are built and relationships between pages are shown. Chapter | 6, Developing Web applications using JSF and Chapter | 5, Developing Web applications using Struts both provide examples of how to use the Web Diagram.
