Check your site
Before posting your pages to a remote server you should always check your files.
So far you’ve learned how to test your pages by previewing them in a browser, now
you’ll learn about other Dreamweaver tools available for creating a follow-up for a
file and for testing your pages.
First, you’ll learn how to add a Design Note to a file, and then you’ll see how to
run a report on files in your site.
Create a Design Note
Design Notes are a great way to manage your site by inserting comments in
your document’s Site window. Use Design Notes to schedule production work,
place follow-ups on files, or to communicate file or site details with team
members. Next you’ll create a Design Note to follow-up on making a change
to one of your site pages.
