Hello there,

I have just created a image in fireworks CS3 that i would like to use as the
basic template in a website. Now i dont want it to simply be set as a
background on the site, i am trying to put it into dreamweaver so that i can
edit on top of the template. So i can put text in, hyperlinks, tables images
etc. As it stands, i am farely new to fireworks and dreamweaver, as you can
probably tell. If this fireworks is the wrong peice of software for creating
templates to be used in dreamweaver, could you please recomommend a peice of
software i should use instead.

Thanks a lot

- Ryan

Use Dreamweaver, of course.

Fireworks is a graphics program. It is not designed to produce robust HTML,
much less templates for Dreamweaver. Fireworks' HTML is for mockup/prototype
use only. Use Fireworks to create your mockups, then your Web site graphics.

Dreamweaver is a heavy-duty Web site design, development, and production
program. Use Dreamweaver to build an HTML page based on your Fireworks image,
then use Dreamweaver's Save as Template command, making sure to mark areas
where you want to be able to enter/edit content. After that, you can create
new pages using your template.

Good luck!
