TFS Team Build + Staging Server   

Hello all,

This isn't so much of a *problem* as it is that I know what I want to
do, but I'm not sure where to start.  We have a Team Foundation Server
(TFS) install and a Team Build, which we've used Scheduled Tasks to
execute nightly at midnight.  The solution contains several class
libraries, but ultimately the deliverable is a web site.

When the team build completes, it copies the "output" of the build to
the locations specified in the DropLocation, however this appears to
only contain the generated assemblies from the class library projects
and none of the web-related output. (i.e. no assemblies related to the
web project, none of the static files *.css/gif/etc, and certainly none
of the .aspx files)

We're looking for a way to have a nightly build, that, if successful,
deploys the completed web site to an internal staging server.  What
should I be looking for in terms of achieving this?  I've read some
bits here and there about Web Deployment Projects, but it seems like
this is something that happens outside the scope of the team build
process.

Thanks for any advice,
Ian
