HelloI am new to dreamweaver, I am not very sure on how to 'manage site'.
For example, if I want to create a 5 pages website, do I need to go to 'manage site - new' everytime I start a new page?? Or I only need to do this once at the beginning (for example, on the first page "index.html'??
thanks....<img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>

You only need to go through that site definition once, after that your site will appear in a dropdown box in the files menu at the bottom right of your screen.
Can I suggest that you organise your site something like this . . .
leave your index.htm file at the top level
put all your images into a directory called images, and sub directories if necessary
put all your related pages into directories (folders) with meaningful names
use only lower case letter for filenames and folder names
don't have any spaces in your filenames, and use the underscore to_space_things_if_you_like
that way will keep your server space nice and tidy, and avoid any problems with case-sensitive names
Others may disagree with what I'm suggesting, I'm sure they'll chip in their 10c worth though <img src=../images/dmxzone/forum/icon_smile.gif border=0 align=middle>
