Use the window that pops up to browse through your computer to open the file.
When you find the file you want to open, click on the “OK” button.
NOTE: Dreamweaver MX 2004 is capable of opening any kind of website file,
regardless of whether or not it was originally created in Dreamweaver MX 2004. For
example, if you have an HTML file that you have coded yourself by hand, you can
also open this in Dreamweaver MX 2004 and edit it in WYSIWYG fashion. If you are
familiar with the technology involved, you can also open ".shtml" files, which may
have been coded with SSI.
Saving a Page
In Dreamweaver MX 2004 (and any other computer application), you should always
make sure to save your work on a regular basis. To save a file in Dreamweaver MX
2004, go to the menu bar and select "File," and then "Save As."
Web Pages and Their Relation to Each Other
The first page of a website is referred to as the "index page." It is given its name,
actually, by the filename generally given to it. All main pages are named
"index.html." Why is this? If you were to enter "http://www.yahoo.com" into your
web browser, what you are actually telling it to look for is
"http://www.yahoo.com/index.html". The index file is loaded, immediately, in all
directories on the web. That's why it's important for you to make your main page an
index file (by saving it as "index.html").
