Instructions.
Adding
Pages.
 |
It's
easy to create new pages and add them
to your web site. Just go to File -> New From Template and
choose the Main.dwt template file. |
Changing
the DHTML Menu.
 |
You'll need
to open the Main.dwt template, and go into HTML view in Dreamweaver
to make the changes necessary to get the look you want |
 |
The lines
that need changing are probably in a burgundy
colour and begin with the word "mymenu2" |
 |
Before each of these lines there
is a comment explaining what changes can be made - here are
some examples: |
 |
Locate mymenu2.maintableprops("#333333",1,1,0)
- changing "#333333" to "#FFFFFF" will change the border around
the top main headings from grey to white. "1,1,0" needn't be
changed. |
 |
Locate mymenu2.maincellprops("left","#333333","#333333")
- changing "#333333" to "#FFFFFF" will change the background
colour of the main headings from grey to white. "left" needn't
be changed. |
 |
Locate mymenu2.subcellprops("left","#ffcc66","#ffcc66")
- this is where you can change the background colour of the
drop down cells - here it's set to black. |
 |
Locate
mymenu2.addMenu("instructions2","<b> INSTRUCTIONS</b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("frontpage2","<b> FRONTPAGE</b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("dreamweaver2","<b> DREAMWEAVER</b>")
mymenu2.addMenu("design2","<b> DESIGN</b>")
This is where you define the names that appear on the main
menu for simplicity sake it's a good idea to use the same
names ie. instructions2 is the name of the group that drops
down from the title INSTRUCTIONS. We've put 4 headings but
you can add more in the same format or less by deleting the
lines
|
 |
That's the first bit done - you
can play around with colours until you get the effect you want. |
 |
The second part is pretty simple
- scroll right down the page and locate mymenu2.addSubMenu("instructions2",
" MODIFICATIONS", "modifications.html")
There are three parts here - Group name that you defined
above "instructions2" - the wording you want to appear on the
drop down - "MODIFICATIONS" - and the link "modifications.html"
- you can also link to another site by using a full URL - for
example "http://www.dreamweaversites.com/". Work through all
the links you want to add and make sure you keep previewing
in a browser to check that everything is going to plan. |
 |
That's about it - it's really not
as daunting as it may seem. It's a good chance to get your hands
dirty with some coding practice! |
