Defining a "Site" in Dreamweaver
This tutorial shows you how to define a site in Dreamweaver. Sadly this is a process that is often overlooked by beginners and experienced webmasters. I say sadly because it can save you a lot of time in the future if you want to change around the path to any of your files. For example, if you make a webpage about flowers and a few months down the track you decide you want to move that file into a subfolder called 'nature' for instance, then what dreamweaver does is it automatically changes all your sites links to match the change. In other words you DON'T need to open every page that links to that flower file and change the path to it manually. As you can imagine, this is also helpful in minimizing broken links through out your website.
