NOTE:
SOME MOVIES BELOW may NOT be in sync with the
latest version of this software.
i.e. The Toolbar and Menus are going to be different places
or completely eliminated.
Some tabs have become popup windows And some tabs have been added, and other tabs have either been eliminated or moved around.
So this will be a little confusing to say the least, as the movies have not been able to keep pace with the updates to the software.
Sorry for the confusion and inconvenience.

Making Parts of
the Menu
pull
from a database |
Most parts of any menu system are static,
but some are dynamic.
a. Adding special Admin buttons that appear
only when
certain
people login.
b. Adding a list of menu items that pull
from a database
Simply
insert your server-side code where you want
the
dynamic
menu items to appear. Thus, instead of
putting the
server side code in the body of the page
to display a
table of data as one typically does, you
insert, at the menu location of your desire,
the
server-side
code
just for the dynamic parts
of the
menu. Thus, the static and dynamic menu
items can display side-by-side.
Additionally, the performance loss will
minimal as that specific
section of the
dynamic
menu needs to hit the database and on only
on those pages it should display on. By
doing it this way, it will not lowering
the performance
of other pages that don't use the dynamic
menu. |

- Microsoft
FrontPage
- Adobe GoLive
- Macromedia Dreamweaver 3 and 4
- Microsoft VisualStudio.NET
- Hot Metal Pro

via two (2) mouse clicks and has a high degree

over.

Fast Update Pages
Shortcut Trick. |
Open the parent folder's template. Make a change in the Body Text so the page
will have an asterik in the Title Bar. Hit
Save. Update Pages.
NOTE: If you have initialized
any folders or added any pages, YOU must
Re-Create the Site Cache so that Dreamweaver
will know about those new files and templates
you created.
By doing it this way, you don't have to always
update the entire site, just only the section(s)
you are currently making changes to. |
