CREATING a WebPage :

1. CHOOSE a page to be the homepage of your Web site. This will be the first page that users encounter when they visit your site. Save this file to your local root folder as home.html. Naming the homepage home.html tells the Web browser that this is the first page it should OPEN when someone visits your site.
2. To add a new page go to File > New and choose a basic HTML page. Save this page by clicking File > Save As. Name the first page home.html 
3. After your homepage is CREATED, you can use this page as a template layout for all the other pages in your site. Simply hit Save As and name the file whatever you wish, but be sure to KEEP the name simple, for example CV.html, resume.html, pictures. etc. Remember not to use capital letters or spaces when naming files; this will make it easier for web browsers to find your files. 
4. To save the pages of your site simply click File > Save for each page. Make sure your homepage is named home.html, and save all of your files in the folder you chose when you defined your site, i.e. in your local root folder. 

Creating a WebPage :

To create a root folder, follow these steps: 

1. Create a NEW folder on your desktop or personal partition. On the desktop, right-click and choose New Folder.
2. Give the folder a brief, but descriptive name. Do not USE capital letters, SPACES, or special characters when naming folders and files for your website. All of your pages will be saved within this folder.
3. Open the folder, and create ANOTHER new folder inside. Name this folder images. Put all of your images, buttons, movie files, etc. inside the images folder.
4. Make sure that all your pages and images are saved in your root folder, or they will not appear the next time your website is opened.
5. Now you are ready to launch Dreamweaver CS3. Click the Dreamweaver CS3 icon from Start > PROGRAMS > Macromedia Dreamweaver CS3. Or use the Adobe Dreamweaver CS3 Icon on your desktop.
