  Server Side Includes
Category: Dreamweaver

If you are developing big web sites with parts of the web pages having repetitive content, you absolutely must use Server Side Includes(SSI). Notice in this site all the sections have the same header, site search and left menu. If we were to make a change any of these areas we would have to manually change it in all the pages or if we were using templates or libraries we would have to FTP all the pages every time we make a change. As we are using Includes we need to make the change only in the Include and it automatically gets reflected in all the sites that are using that Include. Best of all it reduces our FTP time by more than 200% as we only need to FTP one file and not all the pages using the Include (If you are familiar with using templates and libraries you will know that though using templates and libraries cuts down your development time a lot you still have to FTP all the files that use the library or template. This is not the case when using SSI's).

Dreamweaver Image Maps
Category: Dreamweaver

Learn how to link to different pages from the same image using image maps in Dreamweaver. What are image maps?

An image map is an image that has been divided into regions, or "hotspots"; when a hotspot is clicked an action occurs, for example a new file opens. The image found at the bottom is an example of an image map. All the links are in one image which are linked to different pages.

Dreamweaver Layers
Category: Dreamweaver

Layers are DHTML components and are similar to tables with a few different properties. Like tables they are containers where you put text or images. Unlike tables layers allow you to position an image or text in a particular point on the page and dreamwever automatically derives the x and y coordinates for the layer. You can reposition the layer by selecting and dragging it on the screen. Layers can be hidden or made visible, this is an added advantage in layers. Layers are viewed differently in different browsers.

A tutorial on using Templates in Dreamweaver
Category: Dreamweaver

A template is a common structure of a web site that most of your web pages use. Usually web sites follow a standard structure, for e.g. you would have a header, a navigation bar and a footer that is common to all your pages. Imagine that your site has 25 pages. If you need to make one small change, let's say adding a new link, you would need to go to each of those 25 pages and change it manually. But using a template you only need to change it in the template and all the pages get updated automatically. Here you will learn how to use templates in Dreamweaver.
