"...if my custom format pages do not contain ways to edit records, is it necessary to use Web Security to limit editing?"

If you do not want the records edited and you do not have edit commands on your format files, then you can add to those levels of security by disallowing edit in Web Security.

"If I use Web Security to limit deleting files, and then create a custom format page that contains a way to delete files, what happens?"

You will probably get a message which tells you that what you are trying to do is not authorized. My suggestion, try it and find out. You are in "development" aren't you?

Have fun.

I'm having a little trouble understanding how Web Security options relate to Custom Web Publishing.

For example, if my custom format pages do not contain ways to edit records, is it necessary to use Web Security to limit editing? If I use Web Security to limit deleting files, and then create a custom format page that contains a way to delete files, what happens?

Good point.
