Managing Assets
One of the primary goals of Dreamweaver MX is to provide effective site management tools that help you streamline and organize your site work. In fact, one of the most attractive aspects of Dreamweaver MX is the very fact that it can be used successfully to manage almost every aspect of a Web site, from design to server-side development.
Assets in Dreamweaver MX help you keep most of the components of a Web site organized and updated. Keeping track of an ever-increasing assortment of HTML pages, images, links, color schemes, templates, Flash, and multimedia files can be a challenge, and without Assets in Dreamweaver MX, you’d have to find another external management tool, or keep running lists of assets by hand.
While these alternative methods might work for a small site, try it on one that has hundreds, even thousands of documents and you’ll be running to the pub to calm your nerves in no time!
Save your time, sanity - and your liver! - by getting to grips with Asset management!
