Dreamweaver CS4 Template Based Web Pages

This entry is part 10 of 19 in the series Dreamweaver CS4 Tutorials

Now that our Dreamweaver template is ready in we can create the pages of our website easily.

Let us begin with the Home Page. The home page file is usually named index.html. Your remote hosting server will recognize this file as the home page and display it when your domain name is called up.

To create a page from the template:

File > New
Page From Template > BusinessSite > template
Click the ‘Create’ button
Save the file, naming it index.html
Type in your home page content into the ‘content’ editable region.
Replace the default text ‘Untitled Document’ in the title area with appropriate text for your page title e.g. BusinessSite Home Page. This is what will appear in the top blue bar of your browser.
Once you are done, you can view how your page will look in a browser. To do this go to File> Preview in Browser > Choose the browser you want.
