Using Templates in Dreamweaver
Why Use Templates
About Dreamweaver templates - What are they and why do I need one?
First of all, you don't have to use a template. If your project
will involve one or two web pages, you probably don't need a
template and can skip this section!
A Dreamweaver template is a special type of document that you use
to incorporate a uniform style throughout the whole web site.
Because all of the pages in the web site are attached to a
template, one of the most powerful uses of templates is the ability
to update multiple pages at once. You make a change to the template
document, and that change is reflected to all the pages attached to
that document.
Dreamweaver templates typically include:
- Header graphics
- Navigation links
- Contact information
