3 Select the kind of page you want to create from the Template Type column. For example, select HTML template to
create a plain HTML template, select ColdFusion template to create a ColdFusion template, and so on.
4 If you want your new page to contain a CSS layout, select a predesigned CSS layout from the Layout column;
otherwise, select None. Based on your selection, a preview and description of the selected layout appears on the
right side of the dialog box.
The predesigned CSS layouts provide the following types of columns:
Fixed Column width is specified in pixels. The column does not resize based on the size of the browser or the site
visitor’s text settings.
Liquid Column width is specified as a percentage of the site visitor’s browser width. The design adapts if the site visitor
makes the browser wider or narrower, but does not change based on the site visitor’s text settings.
5 Select a document type from the DocType pop-up menu. In most cases, you will want to leave this selected to the
default selection, XHTML 1.0 Transitional.
Selecting one of the XHTML document type definitions from the DocType (DTD) menu makes your page XHTML-
compliant. For example, you can make an HTML document XHTML-compliant by selecting XHTML 1.0 Transitional
or XHTML 1.0 Strict from the menu. XHTML (Extensible Hypertext Markup Language) is a reformulation of HTML
as an XML application. Generally, using XHTML gives you the benefits of XML, while ensuring the backward and
future compatibility of your web documents.
Note: For more information about XHTML, see the World Wide Web Consortium (W3C) website, which contains the
specification for XHTML 1.1 - Module-Based XHTML (
www.w3.org/TR/xhtml11/) and XHTML 1.0
(www.w3c.org/TR/xhtml1/), as well as XHTML validator sites for web-based files (http://validator.w3.org/) and local
files (http://validator.w3.org/file-upload.html).
6 If you selected a CSS layout in the Layout column, select a location for the layout’s CSS from the Layout CSS pop-
up menu.
Add to Head Adds CSS for the layout to the head of the page you’re creating.
Create New File Adds CSS for the layout to a new external CSS styles sheet and attaches the new style sheet to the page
you’re creating.
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.
7 (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.
8 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.
9 Click Preferences if you want to set default document preferences, such as a document type, encoding, and a file
extension.
10 Click Get More Content if you want to open Dreamweaver Exchange where you can download more page design
content.
11 Click the Create button.
