This template
allows you to:
- Download a prebuilt
site to your machine
- Add and delete pages to
the navigation with ease
- Customize page content to
suit your needs
- Utilize Cascading Style
Sheets
- Utilize Dreamweaver Library
files for global updates
Adding Pages
It's easy to create new pages
and add them to your web. Open a sample page or another page you
have created and select "save as" and rename it. The
new page should have the layout intact. Change the content or
graphics inside the new page.
Changing Graphics
Replace the template graphics
with your own graphics created in a graphics editor such as
Photoshop, Paint Shop Pro etc. We've made it easy to change the
header graphic above by providing you with a graphic minus
"YourSite.com." This allows you to use the same
graphic as used above but with your own "Site" info or
company name. Again - you will need to open the graphic with a
graphics editor to make the changes.
Edit
Library Items
Editing
Library items is a quick and painless process and allows you
to update all of the pages containing the Library items at
once.To get started, select "Window" from the top
menu and then "Library." This will bring up your
Library Properties Box. There are two windows in the property
box. The top window is a preview of the Library item and the
bottom window lists all Library items contained within the
site.Double click on the Library item you wish to edit - such
as "Navigation", and it will open. The Library item
will look like a plain HTML page containing only the items
and code for the specific Library item. You can edit Library
item pages just as you would a normal page. When finished
- save your changes and all pages linked to the Library item
will automatically update.For more information on library
items - see the Dreamweaver Help Files.
Cascading
Style Sheets
In folders view, double-click
on multirollover.css. This will open the CSS page. The code
governing the links in the header and in the body will be found
there.
a.nav:link
controls the
left side navigation bar and would serve well if used in the
footer include file should it require links..
a.body:link controls the body links.
To change the color of the
links - simply make changes to the html color coding such as #ffffff
or #336699. Find the HTML color code for the color of your
choice and insert the number in place of the existing one.
If you wish to remove the
Cascading Style Sheet properties...simply remove the code
calling the sheet in the head section of the include pages as
well as any code associated with it in the body of the include
pages such as <LINK REL=STYLESHEET TYPE="text/css"
HREF="multirollover.css">
</head> and Class="body"
