Dreamweaver: Html Editing
built 203 days ago
Dreamweaver ... offers a number of tools to make working between wysiwyg and html modes even easier. The Tag Select area at the bottom left of the status bar shows the position of the current selection within the HTML tag nested hierarchy. For example if your cursor is in a link within a table the hierarchy would be <body><table><tr><td><p><a> and clicking on the appropriate tag would let you instantly select the parent link, paragraph, cell, row, table or the entire page body. Using the Quick Tag (Ctrl+T) feature also lets you quickly add, edit or wrap a tag around the current selection without having to call up the full HTML Source palette.

Dreamweaver can use "Extensions" - small programs, which any web developer can write (usually in HTML and JavaScript). Extensions provide added functionality to the software for whoever wants to download and install them. Dreamweaver is supported by a large community of extension developers who make extensions available (both commercial and free) for most web development tasks from simple rollover effects to full-featured shopping carts.

HTML formatting isn't exactly state-of-the-art but at least Dreamweaver lets you take control over what power there is with its HTML Styles palette (Ctrl+F7). Using the New icon at the bottom of the palette you can save sets of parameters as a named style that is then available for easy and consistent application on any page in your site. You could create a caption style, for example, that would automatically apply a text size two sizes smaller than the body, coloured blue, italicised and right-aligned. Unfortunately no link is maintained to the style so that if you decide to change your caption colour you would have to update individual pages manually.

The Frameset DOCTYPE supports the use of frames, and Dreamweaver will use it automatically if you include any frames in your document. The Frameset page will then reference at least two other HTML pages, which can use any DOCTYPE they like. The Frameset DOCTYPE looks like this:

This module does not assume any prior knowledge of Dreamweaver or Web design. But you will be able to understand and use the material more easily if you have some familiarity with basic Web and html concepts.
