Dreamweaver Web Design is based in Christchurch, New Zealand.

We cater for the smaller business looking for an affordable web presence.

Our philosophy is to design websites that are simple, easy to navigate, quick to load, and visually appealing.

Website design can cost as little as $200 - $300

Web hosting costs $15 per month, payable yearly in advance.

Domain name registration costs $45.

Minor updates throughout the year are free.

We do not design shopping carts, or use Flash and Java extensively.

Even after stripping, you often find that there is a lot of unnecessary formatting information being stored in your file and I generally find it better to format pages from scratch. This is primarily done through the Properties palette which provides control over paragraph format, typeface and size along with paragraph alignment and character style. As we saw in the recent Web Design masterclass, this control is restricted by the very nature of HTML. The paragraph formats Dreamweaver offers are primarily limited to the six in-built Heading styles that help give your page a logical hierarchy. Specifying a particular typeface is pointless if your visitor doesn't have it installed, so it's more usual to specify broad font sets indicating whether you want your text to be displayed in a sans or sans serif font. Text size too can't be specified exactly but rather is set as one of seven in-built display sizes.

Here there be braids.

The purpose of this page is to provide hair braiding instructions to anyone who wants them, to be a resource for my various hobbies, and  to give friends access to my songs.  If you have any ideas for braids that aren't here, or care to share any hair braiding tips, please email me.

This site is best viewed with Internet Explorer, I'm sad to say.  Netscape has a variety of problems with it, depending on the version level.  Opera, however, has had no problems to date with this page.

Problem: Dreamweaver 4 falls short in its ability to produce well–formed, standards–compliant markup. Solution: You can easily harness Dreamweaver’s two greatest strengths, its flexibility and its user community, to make it one of the best tools on the market for producing good XHTML. This article will tell you how.

With a few tweaks, hacks and extensions, you’ll be able to produce sites that validate, and to clean up legacy pages. Set aside an hour or two, follow these directions, and fall in love with Dreamweaver all over again.

The Objects palette offers most of the visual elements that we will add to the wireframe. When you click an item in the Objects palette, Dreamweaver places that object where you last clicked in the document.

At the top of the Objects palette is the Category drop-down menu, which lets you control which object types appear in the palette. For wireframing, we will primarily use the Common, Character, and Forms object categories. Figure 2 shows how the Objects palette looks with each of these three categories selected and labels the most useful items in each set
