DreamWeaver

To 'paste' code using Dreamweaver, you need to be looking at the 'code' window. Choose View from the toolbar, and then choose either Code or Code and Design. Using the 'code and design' option will let you see your pasted code as it will appear when your page is published and viewed by your site visitors. You will now have a split screen. The top window contains your code, and the bottom window shows what the result is (what Joe Surfer sees when he views the website). Position your cursor in the 'code' window - top of the page - exactly where you want your newly pasted code to appear, right click your mouse, and then choose Edit from the toolbar, then Paste as HTML from the dropdown that appears. Or just position your cursor where you want to code to be, right click the mouse, and then press the Control and V keys together. The image opposite shows the sort of thing you would see immediately after pasting a new link into the code window. The real html is visible in the 'code' window - just above where the cursor is - and the page as it would appear is shown in the lower 'design' window. If it is incorrect, or improperly positioned you may go back to the top window and edit or move the code as necessary. This page would not have been possible without the generous assistance of Stephanie from Missouri who prepared the original text and screen images which were edited to produce this page.
