Unit 13: Dreamweaver – Forms and Media Elements

Notes

Notes This command requires Macromedia’s Fireworks image-editing program, which
creates thumbnail and full-size versions of each image. Dreamweaver then creates a Web
site with one page displaying all of the thumbnail images. The thumbnails are linked to
individual HTML pages containing the full-size images.

z Format Table: Opens a list of preset formatting options for your HTML table, including
color schemes, text alignment and style, and border measurements. (Unavailable when a
table is in Layout mode).

z Sort Table: Sorts the information in a selected table. You can choose to sort alphabetically
or numerically, in ascending or descending order. This command cannot be applied to
tables that include rowspans or colspans.
z Insert Mark of the Web: This is applicable only to Windows XP with Service Pack 2. This
software update inserted code into Internet Explorer to “protect” it from malicious Web
page code.
z Attach an XSLT Stylesheet: This menu option, available only when working on a XML
file, lets you attach an XSL file, which miraculously transforms cryptic XML into a beautiful,
browser-viewable page.
