1. Re: How to move photos in Dreamweaver MX?
Newsgroup_User Jan 16, 2007 4:45 AM (in response to TerryLn22)Step back from the keyboard and take a deep breath.
Clear your mind of everything you know about word processors, publishing
applications and image editors.
Now, find a good book on html and css and get a good understanding of the
concepts.
You can not drag and drop text, images or other content in html documents.
Dreamweaver has some of this functionality in the design view, but
basically, you must describe your layout in html. The code tells the
browsers where to place text and images, how to style them, how they will
relate to each other.
to get started, try tables for positioning images and text. Tabs and spaces
don't work. Then check out some tutorials on div positioning and css to
style your page.
Lurk about on this forum a lot and read the many posts on these issues.
It's a steep learning curve, but the most important thing is not to confuse
Dreamweaver or html markup with Word, or Publisher. They are not at all
related.
And PLEASE... do not fall into the trap of letting one of those programs
create html code for you. They will simply make a huge mess of it.
(reference many posts here on that subject.)
Good luck
