Dreamweaver css starter templates

Jun 30, 2010 4:14 PM

I am wondering if dream weaver comes with any form of starting templates. I am good with html/css, but the problem is that I'm not a master of doing it off hand yet.

Is there any templates I can use that work with Dreamweaver or dreamweaver has currently? I'm using the trial period to see if I like Dreamweaver, but without any form of starting templates I'm kind of lost.

Thank you.

Not currently. DW CS3 came with starter pages but they needed to be re-done so Adobe pulled them back.

You'll find some CSS Templates on my web site.

Also Project Seven has some very nice page packs and CSS Layouts -

Can those be used for commercial use? I make money off my current blog. I would use the template delete everything that I didn't need or change it to match my specifications. I don't want to get into trouble for using it for my site even though I'm in the fitness field and not selling templates.

Can I just copy those and put them into dream weaver if I can use them commercially?

Nancy:

Have you used the EZ-CSS grid that Thierry has come up with?

I was just reading through the pages and noted this incredibly clever thing -

.ez-wr .ez-box { text-align: center; padding: 20px; border: 1px solid #000; } /* to prevent double border on inner boxes */ .ez-wr .ez-wr { margin:-1px 0; }
What Thierry does is to give the inner boxes a -1px top/bottom margin so that the borders OVERLAP at top and bottom thereby preventing the double border from being shown (i.e., it doesn't get rid of the double borders, it just prevents them from being shown!). Have you seen that done before?

Yes, and I like it.

.ez-wr .ez-box { text-align: center; padding: 20px; border: 1px solid #000; } /* to prevent double border on inner boxes */ .ez-wr .ez-wr { margin:-1px 0; }

From his Demo page -- http://www.ez-css.org/demo_page
Theirry really does think outside the box. It wouldn't occur to me to do it this way. But it works!

Thanks, and thanks for that link too. I knew he was doing this kind of thing, but its much more advanced than it was the last time I saw it.

(Thank you, both)
