Adobe Dreamweaver is a very useful program -- if you know how it works. To expedite the process of using this program to make a webpage, you'll need to know a few tricks. And then you'll be armed and ready to start creating!
Steps
- Create a folder in the hard drive (not in Dreamweaver) and name it whatever you want. This is your root folder.
- Inside this folder create 4 sub-folders and name them: Images, Flash, Pages, and Other.Advertisement
- Go into Dreamweaver and click on HTML. Save this page into your root folder as Home Page.
- Get Started.
- Dreamweaver is a little bit screwy so to put images, buttons, etc where you want them you have to add in tables. Go to insert, new table. You can set it to as many cubes as you want. It's a little tricky to get it where you want but a little playing with it works.
- If you want to, you can insert buttons by going to insert, form, button. Once you get it, you can right click on it and look for the page you want to connect it to or type in the url of the site.
- You can also use flash text and you can add in pictures.
- When adding a picture, do not copy/paste it. Go to insert, image and then search for the pic you want. Again, Dreamweaver is a little screwy.
- To change the background color and font go to modify, page properties, and it's self explanatory from there.
- That should get you on the right track!Advertisement
