STAGE 3 Creating the page

We have defined our site and we have created a folder to save the files for our Web site. Now, we will create a simple web page as an exercise to get to know Dreamweaver.

To begin, we create a new file.

  • On the toolbar, we click on File.
  • Then, we select New, to create the first page.

Now, we will work on our new page. It is normal for a blank page to appear on our screen or it could have a series of horizontal and vertical lines. We can basically build a page using 2 methods:

A) We can write the instructions in the HTML language. This system is more complicated. To use it, we need to click on the 'show code view' icon on the upper left hand corner.

This will show the code or html language instructions already present in the new active page.

B) We can use the Design View system in Dreamweaver, which is pretty simple.

For starters, we will work with the Design View since it's more simple. Therefore, we will begin with a blank page after clicking on the 'show design view', as seen in the image above.
