1. Defining Sites

The first thing you must do when creating a webpage is DEFINE THE SITE. This is key to the development of your site. The following is how to define your site:

• After you have opened Dreamweaver, go up to the SITE option on the menu across the top of the screen, and then go down to DEFINE SITE…
  
  
• The following will then appear on your screen:
  
• Now, click on the option that says MY SITE, or MY HOMEPAGE. Then click the "EDIT" option on the right part of the menu. If an option such as "My Site" or "My Homepage" does not appear, select "NEW" from the right part of the menu. Then the following will appear:

  

• Make sure that the Local Root Folder box says "H:\\WWW\". This makes sure that the computer is reading your website files from your WWW folder. Also, write in the college homepage address in the HTTP Address box.
  
  
• After you do this, press OK, and then it will go back to the original menu, and click DONE.
  
  
• After you have clicked DONE on the original menu that came up, a new window with names of files will appear. You need not do anything with this. You can simply close it.
  
  
• Now you have finished defining your site!
