what you do is right click on your index page and go to edit duplicate which will make a copy of you index age then you can edit the page name and page content.

Looking for some Help!

I have been in the page properties messing around in the links category, also I have been messing around in the behaviours panel but nothing I do seems to resolve my problem which is this, how do you have a link a different colour from the rest so a visitor to your site can easily identify which page they are on. Page properties change the links as a whole and not individual. If any1 can help click reply to the right of this message ty, Mark from Scotland

In CS3 there isn’t the Refresh Check box…. What is happening to me is that the files I create with Dreamweave aren’t appearing in my folders when I browse them with windows explorer for example…
