Create a template in Dreamweaver CS4

Creating a template in Dreamweaver CS4 will form the basis of your website. It will give your site a consistent look and make it easy to manage.Using the layout you designed in Fireworks as a basis we will recreate it in Dreamweaver as html files.

• From the Dreamweaver Menu select File > New
• Select ‘Blank Template’ > Template Type: ‘HTML Template’ > Layout: ‘none’
• You will get a blank document. Save it [ File> Save].
• You will get a message that the template does not have any editable regions. This is ok. Give it a name. I have given it the name ‘template’.
  
• If you look in your Files panel you will see that your template has been saved as template.dwt within a new folder entitled ‘Templates’
