Refresher Course
for Dreamweaver MX 2004

1. Open Dreamweaver and select "Remote View " in the drop-down box above the file list (usually on the right side of the page, under the 'Files" tab).

2. 

   Navigate to the page/file you want to update. You will find the URL in the address bar at the top of your browser window.
   
   A typical URL is www.emu.edu/admissions/soar.html.
   
   To get to this page, a curator would open the soar.html file within the main admissions folder in their list of files.

3. Select the file by clicking on it once.

4. Click the green arrow (which points down) at the top of the file list in order to download the most recent copy of that page from the web server.

5. Once Dreamweaver has grabbed the newest copy of the file, double-click on the file to open it.

6. Use the Properties toolbar (usually at the bottom of the Dreamweaver screen) to edit your text.

• To add a link, select the words you want visitors to click on and then type the destination URL or file name, in the Link field in the toolbar.
• The bold and italics features operate as they do in Microsoft Word; highlight the text and click the appropriate icon to turn the feature on and off.
• Use the Format drop-down box to select a heading size: paragraph, or headings 1 (big) through 4 (small).
  
  

7. When you have made your changes, click the Save icon in the upper left on the Dreamweaver screen.

8. Then, click the green / blue arrow icon and select "PUT" in order to put the edited file on the web server for all to see.
