RE: CSS

Hi Stuart,

Thanks for your question. I hope you enjoyed the Dreamweaver training.

The best way to do this is to have a global CSS file (note you can also have more than one).

So for example, create your CSS file (perhaps global.css) and save it into a folder such as /asset/css/

Then, at the top of every file, or in your template, be sure to include that CSS file in your HEAD tags.

eg.
<link href="/asset/css/global.css" rel="stylesheet" type="text/css">

Then, whenever you make a change to your global.css file, and upload it to your server/hosting account, all the pages on your site that link to that file, and take their styles from that file will be updated instantly.

Note, sometimes, you may have to press F5 in your browser to see the changes. Everyone's browser settings are different, so it may take a while for your returning customers to see the new look/style.

If this answer resolves your query, please mark the question as 'resolved' (see below). Otherwise, please post a follow-up response to this post, and I will assist you further.

Regards, Rich

Dreamweaver tip:

JumpMenu in new window

When inserting a jumpmenu to a page, the only option available for 'open in' is usually 'main window'. There would be other options available if the page was a frameset.

To change the jumpmenu to open in a new window, change the target parameter of the selectbox in your code to 'window.open()'.

eg.

<select name="menu1" onChange="MM_jumpMenu('window.open()',this,0)">
