HTML - Html Templates Without Dreamweaver
Hi,
I'm looking at creating a website for a university assignment, and am not allowed to create the code in Dreamweaver. Is there any way to store the constant layout components in one file, referenced by each separate page in the site, so I wouldn't need to go through each page to edit the design after I've built it? Put another way, is it possible to use template-style files to apply to HTML pages, without using the Dreamweaver's built-in varieties? If this is possible in JavaScript or PHP instead of HTML, please let me know. Thanks for your help, Christian Similar TutorialsI'm not sure this is the correct place to post this question. Please redirect me if it is not. I am trying to use a template for all the pages on my site. I am using Dreamweaver. When I apply the template to a new page, it appends the path of the template directory to all my links, and won't let me edit them. I'm not sure in general how templates are supposed to work. Can I do this without Dreamweaver? Is there a good FAQ on templates somewhere that I can read? Thanks. In my website I want to show several art projects. Each project page should look exactly the same, however have different pictures and text. Therefore is it possible to create some sort of html template which takes 4 pictures and some text and will output the right format. The reason for this is that if i decide I want to change the format of the project page, I only have to edit one template instead of several project pages. Thanks in advance Calypso I am having some problems with my template, I have to upload it a few times before it work. Seems like when I've edited and upload it, it doesn't change the files link to it. This can't be due to me linking them wrongly, cause they used to work before after a few tries. But i've been trying for a few days with no success. Any advice? Thanks ---------------------------------------------------------------------------------------- Nevermind i managed to solve it, I have to click save instead of letting dreamweaver do it automatically before it automatically updates the rest of the link file. Kindly let me know if I can get professional templates which can be amended according to one's needs. I am not sure what I am doing wrong with this page but the validation fails. Any help? I need a simple html teplate page for ebay and Craigslist posting. Css cannot be a seeperat file. Coding as to be basic for criaglist. What is a good source for template like this? HI, Can anybody recommend a gadget for Previewing / Thumbnailing HTML templates on my hard drive. I have lots of index.html pages in different folders and I'm looking for a way to flick through them, rather than having to go in and open the files individually. Thus far I've used Notepad, vi, and UltraEdit to code websites. However, my client uses Dreamweaver, so I need to build a website that he can easily edit in Dreamweaver. I am finding out Dreamweaver's "style" little by little, but can anyone here give me a few pointers? For example, I prefer to use div's, not table's, for layout. Is this going to make WYSIWYG editing difficult or buggy for my client? I prefer to use external stylesheets (in a separate .css file). But if my client tries to write new paragraphs with different font-styles, etc., won't Dreamweaver define new internal styles, e.g. "style13" in the <head/> section? Is this just an annoyance I'll have to deal with? Or is there a way to force the client to use the styles and classes I have specified? One thing I'll do for sure is set up his workspace so that the website conforms to HTML 4.01 Strict. That should help a little bit, I think. God help my feeble mind if <font> tags infect my beautiful code. Any tips are well appreciated! Dear I made an html newsletter with dreamweaver and I used the swap image behavior. I can view the result perfectly in explorer. Now I mailed it to my own mailbox (via explorer) and in outlook (and also in hotmail) the swap image effect doesn't appear.(the second photo is not shown) Is there a possibility to see this in my mailbox? I tried to paste the code into my outlook, but that doesn't work with the regular outlook, I only can view the source, not edit it. Thank you very much in advance! Kind regards Sandra I'm not sure if this is in the correct section, but what is the use of a template in PSD form with all the layers in it? Can any one direct me to a tutorial on coding xhtml editable templates. ( or give me advice) I used to use dreamweaver to build templates but I haven't bothered to up date it instead I am using HTML-kit. What I liked about dreamweaver was that you could build a template and apply it to every page so you only had to alter the template not every page. I am fine using css for style. its building a template for the repeating elements of each page like links etc and then adding editable regions. I would would like the freedom to build my own rather than use pre made ones. Thanks Hi. I need to find a way of displaying some thumbnail photos in a table cell across a bunch of different tempates.

I'm just starting to get involved in web design. I have a quick question. I have the template and have modified it to fit my needs. I understand it uses the images from the pack/bundle I D/L'd. I want to load it into geocities and I copied and pasted the code over , but it comes up with just blank with text and a grey screen.

Hi, not sure whether I'm in the right section but I have downloaded a template from a website which is the form of a e-commerce website, most of the files in the zip file that I downloaded were in php format. I downloaded this via FTP to my hosting file database but when I try going to the link of my doman it comes up with an error? Am I uploading the files properly or do they need to be done in a certain way? Thanks for any help Hi there, I am using dreamweaver to make this website and I have got a little problem. I have got this template which has a top nav bar, and if it is selected it has a class="current" for CSS. I am using it in a template so when one updates they all do. This is where the problem occurs. I cannot set each one to current on the nav bar. I could make the nav bar and editable region, however I dont want to, as then if I update it, it wont up date any of the others. Is there a way to do a sort of IF statment saying if the url equals www.mydomain.com/aboutus.html class equals current? Thanks. Josh |
