I want to create a new div within the editable area of my DW page (CS4). This is not the template file, but the actual page I'm working on. It will create the div, but I can't get any of the attributes like width and position to apply. Is there a certain way I should put a div inside an editable area like this?
What steps are you taking to insert the <div> into the editable region?
Are you doing this manually or through the various menus in Dreamweaver?
I'll assume you're doing it maunally via Dreamweaver:
1) You have the <div> inserted in your editable region, right?>Insert>Layout Objects>Div Tag>Insert>After start tag>choose name of your editable <div>
2) Give it an id in the same menu and then press ok.
3)Next go>Window>Css styles>click the little + icon (bottom right corner)>enter the ID (name) of the <div> you inserted in the editable region>click ok
4) You will then be presented with a menu to choose the <divs> attributes. Width/height come under the 'Box' category down the left side.
5) Optional-its a whole lot easier to just do the above in code view.
