Getting started with Dreamweaver CS3 - tutorial

I just came across this great tutorial for the absolute beginner just starting with Dreamweaver. The tutorial is written for Dreamweaver CS3, and shows you how to create a new website using the tools.  The tutorial takes you from creating a site definition right to uploading the site to your server.

It assumes that you have a host, a domain, planned, and designed the site’s layout. If you don’t know how to do those things, the tutorial links out to other how-tos to show you how to do that as well.

These tutorials take advantage of the WYSIWYG tools in Dreamweaver, so you don’t need to worry about coding your site.

You can find the tutorial here:

It also offers some special projects at the end if you want to go further with your site, after uploading it.

Using Spry in Dreamweaver CS3 - adding a Menu Bar

CreativePro.com has a good tutorial by David Sawyer McFarland that introduces you to using the new Spry widgets in Dreamweaver CS3. They say:

Adding a Spry Menu Bar to a Web page is a three-step process. First, you tell Dreamweaver to insert the menu bar, which adds a JavaScript file and a CSS file to your site and adds HTML to create a “starter menu” of links. Second, you edit the menu Dreamweaver inserted by changing the text of the menu buttons, and adding new menu options and links to other pages on your site. Finally, you modify the CSS that Dreamweaver supplies to match the look of your site.

This tutorial will take you step-by-step through adding and modifying a Spry Menu Bar.
