In this tutorial, you’ll create an external style sheet for a Web page on the National Exasperater Web site.
As usual, this tutorial requires some half-finished starter documents from the Web. Using your Web browser, visit www.sawmac.com/dwmx2004/ . Click the Tutorials link to go to the tutorials page. Then, under Cascading Style Sheets Tutorial, click the link for Windows or Macintosh, depending on your computer.
When the files are downloaded and decompressed, you should have a folder named DWCSS on your computer, containing the Web pages and graphics for this tutorial.
Once you’ve downloaded the tutorial files and opened Dreamweaver, choose the DWCSS folder as your site folder, using the site-definition routine described on Section 1.3.1. (For a shortcut, choose Site→Manage Sites, click New and then select Site from the pop-up menu. In the Site Definition window, click the Advanced tab, type something like CSS Tutorial into the Site Name field, click the folder icon next to the Local Root Folder field, navigate to and select the folder DWCSS, and then click Choose or Select. Finally, click OK.)
