USING DREAMWEAVER
Creating and Managing Files
Last updated 3/28/2012
Link To Existing File Lets you specify an existing CSS file that already contains the CSS rules needed for the layout. To
do this, click the Attach Style Sheet icon above the Attach CSS file pane and select an existing CSS style sheet. This
option is particularly useful when you want to use the same CSS layout (the CSS rules for which are contained in a
single file) across multiple documents.
6 (Optional) You can also attach CSS style sheets to your new page (unrelated to the CSS layout) when you create the
page. To do this, click the Attach Style Sheet icon
above the Attach CSS file pane and select a CSS style sheet.
For a detailed walk-through of this process, see David Powers’s article, Automatically attaching a style sheet to new
documents.
7 Select Enable InContext Editing if you want to create a page that becomes InContext Editing-enabled as soon as
you save it.
An InContext Editing-enabled page must have at least one div tag that can be specified as an editable region. For
example, if you’ve selected the HTML page type, you must select one of the CSS layouts for your new page, since these
layouts already contain pre-defined
div tags. The InContext Editing editable region is automatically placed on the div
tag with the content ID. You can later add more editable regions to the page if you like.
8 Click Preferences if you want to set default document preferences, such as a document type, encoding, and a file
extension.
9 Click Get More Content if you want to open Dreamweaver Exchange where you can download more page design
content.
10 Click the Create button.
11 Save the new document (File > Save).
12 In the dialog box that appears, navigate to the folder where you want to save the file.
It’s a good idea to save your file in a Dreamweaver site.
13 In the File Name box, type a name for the file.
Avoid using spaces and special characters in file and folder names, and do not begin a filename with a numeral. In
particular, do not use special characters (such as é, ç, or ¥) or punctuation marks (such as colons, slashes, or periods)
in the names of files you intend to put on a remote server; many servers change these characters during upload, which
will cause any links to the files to break.
