Overview/Description
Many advanced web site developers prefer the flexibility of hand coding to interface-based design. Dreamweaver CS3 offers a number of tools and options, which can be used to hand code entire sites, or customize specific page sections. This course explores these coding features, and provides basic coverage of XML and XSLT. Collaborative site design, site map creation, and Dreamweaver extensions are also covered. Following the creation of a web site, significant amounts of time are spent on testing, maintenance, and management. Dreamweaver CS3 provides features for link checking, reporting, cloaking, comparing and synchronizing files, and configuring remote access, which are also examined in this course.
