Setting CSS Styles preferences
CSS Styles preferences control how Dreamweaver writes the code that defines CSS
styles. CSS styles can be written in a shorthand form that some people find easier
to work with. Some older versions of browsers do not correctly interpret the
shorthand. Unless you want Dreamweaver to write styles in shorthand, there is no
reason to change any of the CSS Style preferences.
Choose Edit > Preferences and select CSS Styles to display CSS Styles Sheet
Format preferences. See also “Using CSS style sheets” on page 248.
Use Shorthand For
determines which CSS style attributes Dreamweaver writes
in shorthand.
When Editing CSS Styles Use Shorthand
controls whether Dreamweaver rewrites
existing styles in shorthand. Choose If Original Used Shorthand to make
Dreamweaver leave all styles as they are. Choose According to Settings Above to
make Dreamweaver rewrite styles in shorthand according to the attributes
specified in the Use Shorthand For checkboxes.
Converting CSS styles to HTML tags
If you have used CSS styles to specify text formatting (such as the family, size,
color, and decoration of fonts) and later decide that you want to make the
formatting viewable on a 3.0 browser, you can use the File > Convert > 3.0
Browser Compatible command to convert as much of the style information as
possible to HTML tags.
Note: Not all CSS styles can be converted to HTML, because HTML tags do not cover or
support all the attributes possible in CSS.
To convert a file that uses CSS styles to a 3.0 browser–compatible file:
1
Choose File > Convert > 3.0 Browser Compatible.
2
In the dialog box that appears, select CSS Styles to HTML Markup.
When you choose the Layers to Tables option, Dreamweaver replaces all layers
with a single table that preserves the original positioning.
CSS styles are replaced, where possible, with HTML tags such as
b
and
font
.
Any CSS markup that cannot be converted to HTML is removed. See “CSS to
HTML markup conversion table” on page 257 for information on which styles
are converted and which are removed.
3
Click OK. Dreamweaver opens the converted file in a new, untitled window.
Note: You must perform this conversion procedure each time you change the original file in
order to update the 3.0-compatible file. For this reason, it’s best to perform this procedure
only after you are completely satisfied with your original file.
