    DReamweaver CS3 tryout question

    Soula-55 Community Member
      I have installed the tryout version of Dreamweaver CS3 on my computer.

      Is there a way to make a "custom" installation? Presently it just installs everything without giving the opportunity to make selections, except for the installation location and the file associations. Is this because I am dealing with a tryout, or would I have the exact same procedure if I were to buy the "boxed" edition?

      As I already have Photoshop CS2 installed, I already have its version of Bridge installed. So, now I find myself with 2 Bridges. Is this OK? Is there a way to uninstall one of them?

      Also, the tryout version installs something called "Bonjour Service" Can anybody tell me what is the function of this application? What does it do exactly? Do I need it?

      Thanks to all

          There is no way to alter the installation process, unfortunately.

          And Bonjour is a way for DW to discover any online network servers for
          VersionCue, even though the latter app doesn't work in CS3. Unfortunate....

            "Adobe form"?

            You cannot do what you are describing without using some server-scripting.
            Perhaps you can find something useful by searching the web....

              Thanks guys, I am new to Dreamweaver, so I am at the point of evaluating the software. It seems though that it is quite comprehensive, except that by principle I prefer custom installations.
              I also checked the web for the Bonjour Service.... It puzzles me though... why the French term?

                probably because "Good Day Service" would have left a pretty daft impression :-)

                  I'm not sure that Bonjour sounds much better. I suspect the name
                  probably comes from the concept of protocol handshakes. When signing
                  onto an email server, a HELO message is sent. Yes, I know the spelling
                  looks odd, but the idea of HELO probably led to Bonjour. Just be glad
                  that it wasn't dreamed up by someone of Polish or Japanese ancestry. It
                  would have become the dziendobry or konnichiwa service. :-)
