JEM has 3 different types of content: Blog, Standard, and Advanced.  Each content type is set in the Options tab for each Content's details

Blog Content

The default content type for JEM is the blog. This option allows you to add new content entries in JEM similar to any other blog site.  It allows your viewers to post comments, and is available via RSS feed.  These content entries are also searchable via the content search box on the left or right hand columns.

Standard Content

This content type allows you to create full blown HTML pages in JEM.  By setting this content type, you can create your web pages directly using the built in HTML editor.  It is essentially your very own web page builder, with full support for image uploading, flash, and even JavaScript.

Advanced Content

Advanced content is similar to standard content in that it is a regular web page.  The big difference is that you do not use the HTML editor to create pages.  You must create your HTML pages outside of JEM, and add them in via Content Path field in the Options Tab.  You must type in the full physical path in the Content Path field for JEM to include it in the web page.  For example:

/home/username/docs/webpage.html

You must therefore upload that HTML file manually into your web site.  You can use FTP or your web hosting file manager to do so. 

This option can give you more flexibility if you do not want to use the HTML editor in JEM  (sometimes the formatting is a bit quirky especially for custom CSS stuff).
