Dreamweaver Templates for Faculty Webpages
These pages describe how to use Weinberg IT templates to create your site with Dreamweaver, even if you've never used Dreamweaver Templates before. You will need Dreamweaver 8 (or above). Dreamweaver MX 2004 can be used though there are someknown issues with MX 2004.
If you're building a site for a lab or research group, also see our general web site templates (tailored for group sites, rather than personal sites).
Every effort was made to make these instructions accessible to users without any Dreamweaver experience but this site is no substitute for an in-depth course or book on Dreamweaver. If you have suggestions for how we can improve these instructions, e-mailweb@wcas.northwestern.edu. To learn more about Dreamweaver, HR Training and Development offers Dreamweaver training.
Adobe Contribute Tips
#1: To create a line break without a line space, hold the shift key as you tap the "Enter" key.
#2: Need to indent a single line, or one or more paragraphs, of text? Use the indent button (see image) NOT the space bar. Why? Because using the spacebar will result in a string of non-breaking spaces that could size differently on different browsers, resulting in a ragged left margin, or create awkward and unnatural sentence wrapping.
Detailed information about using Contribute is also available on this site.
