New Document Dialog Box with CSS Layouts
Adobe® Dreamweaver® CS3 helps simplify the
task of web page creation with its New Document
dialog box, completely redesigned with enhanced
usability. Several templates and pre-created
samples have been provided as starting points
for your designs. A large number of fixed, elastic,
and liquid Cascading Style Sheet layouts, in several
column formats, can jump-start your page or site.
Extensive in-line comments in the CSS code and
the Design view will help you learn.
Thumbnail previews of the templates help make
selection easier, and dialog box options let you
save CSS rules into your document or in external
style sheets that are automatically linked to your
document. Preference settings can improve
your efficiency by displaying the same desired
options each time you access the dialog box.
