A template is an empty block that's been provided for you. You place your graphics and text within that block. The block can be any shape or size.
A web template is an entire page or site, and you just stick your things on.
An item template is one space on the page.
An alternating template is one that changes, depending what you type into it.
The header and footer are the top and the bottom, and sometimes when you make one, it will automatically show up on every page of your site.
A separator is just a line on a page to let your visitor know you are changing the subject.
Repeater web server control is something used by your web host, it's just a way for them to let their customers design their own pages without learning codes.

In ASP.NET:
An item template is applied to all items in a data control, such as a repeater. An item is, for example, each record you get from a database query.
The alternating item template, if applied to your repeater, will be applied to every other item in the list. For example, to make a datagrid easier to read, you might want to apply a different colored background to every other item, so reading across the table is easier.
The header template applies to the entire repeater. It appears before the individual rows are output.
The footer template applies to the entire repeater and appears after all the data is output.
A seperator template, in a datalist control, will appear between each item in the control.
A repeater is a highly customizable data control that allows you to output individual records from some data source, such as a database query.
