Dreamweaver help

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Anyone use dreamweaver for websites? im so confused and cant work out how to make multipage sites, i usually use FrontPage but fancied a different programe as FP always feels un-professional

Ive used it before when I did DIDA ( Dipola in digital applicastions) and it was a pain!

Have you created a template?

No i have been trying to work out how to do one - any idea??

[Abbie]

right, sorry I dont have dreamweaver at home and its been 2 years since I did this so I may seem vague

Can you not find anywhere where it says something about a creating a template page, like under file or some other tab, or is there not a help section?

Well I I used it we can a text book that basically told us what to do, there should be things somewhere as to tell you what to do
I'll try and think some more as to where the template thing should be

Hiya, when i first got it (and for my ICT coursework) I used these tutorials

as they are easy to understand, I think :)

At the moment i am trying to create a template but can't work out how

and as ive only used FP i dunno if it is the same in all web design progs, but in FP you have to link pages up in a tree diagram (bit like a family tree) for it to even work as a multi-page website, is this the same in DW? if so how do i do it? or is there something else i have to do??

[Xx-Vicky-xX]

Ok some one smart help me please before i get annoyed, DW has an FTP built in and my webspace is with ntl/virgin media ive typed in to the DW FTP all the details that ive been told to but it doesnt like it and its annoying me

Does Virgin have an FTP programme they suggest you use. Its strange they dont like Dreamweaver as its an industry standard

I dont think its Virgin not liking DW i think its DW not liking virgin cos no matter what i type in the boxes it says its wrong.

Virgin does suggest one yes but i have read that virgin does not actually support the one it suggests :confused:

I know this might sound silly but are you sure you have entered the correct ftp settings when trying to upload your files.

I don't know, in my head yes i have, but obviously something is not right
