I’m not very experienced whilst using Dreamweaver, but I know that there is somehow a way I can put a scrollbox into my table. Can anyone give me a simple step by step guide so that I can make this work?
In design view, select:
Insert > Form > Textarea
That will insert a scrollable text box for a form. There is a way to do it in CSS as well but I’m not sure what your trying to do.
What is the primary folder that contains all files that make up a site in Dreamweaver?
it depends where you saved your website project. when creating a project it will ask you where to save it.
Just like the question said: I need to publish my site from Dreamweaver MX and later burn the finished site onto a CD but I don’t know how [to publish the site in a way I can burn it onto a CD]! Immediate help would be very much appreciated!

There’s no option under preferences that I see; I can’t see dreamweaver listed in the "Default programs" in Win7 either. Heck, even Microsoft office or any other programs on my machine do not show up there (in the manage default programs). Anyhow, how do I make Dw default for all file types that Dw can handle?

Does it have a certain format of video to play when using Dreamweaver?
A quick glance at the present-day internet would seem to indicate that Adobe Flash is the obvious choice for embedding video in a web page.
You can use FLV as the video format to be embedded to web page. To add FLV video to web page, you also need a web-based FLV player.
If you don’t have a Flash tool, you can check Moyea Web Player. It is a quick solution to add flash video (FLV) to website and an easy-to-use Web FLV player creator, with which, customizing skinning streaming FLV player and FLV player (flash video player) for website only needs a few mouse-clicks. And the created player can be easily edited via flashvars code.
Here is its official website:

And this is tutorial -

I am trying to make a website. I have a template already that I made one Photoshop but I want to get it onto Dreamweaver without slicing. I only have Photoshop Elements so there is no slicing. I know there is a way to do it but I just don’t know how to.
Well…Photoshop makes images. If you save it as a common image type, you can easily use it with any website. You might want to use GIMP to do the slicing.
I made a website in Dreamweaver CS4, but my client doesn’t have the software. The website is built from a Dreamweaver template that I made, and it has Editable Regions in all of the pages. How can the client edit the website without having the Dreamweaver CS4 software?
If they know html, they can edit it in Notepad, or any other text editor.
My partner is making a template in dreamweaver for joomla site and we are not to sure on how to upload it to it. We appreciate the help, thanks in advance.
Dreamweaver and Joomla have entirely different template mechanisms. You can use Dreamweaver to set up a prototype and then use that as the foundation for a Joomla template, but you’d have to copy over the CSS and the basic HTML structure yourself.
Dreamweaver still uses a page-based approach, where each page is like a word document. Joomla is a content management system. The template in a CMS contains no actual data, but all the data is stored in a database and the page is built in real time.
I loaded a pre-built site into dreamweaver. Half of the pages were built in php format. I built a new page to add to the site with new links and pictures. But when I uploaded the site to the web, neither the pictures nor the links worked. Any ideas what might have caused this? Or something I missed that would prevent a newly added page from working? Settings etc? I’m using Dreamweaver CS4. Thanks in advance.
Try using the FTP protocol to upload the files manually. Your host most probably supports FTP so all you need to do is download a client like FileZilla and then you can upload the files directly to your website.
What are some free alternatives to Macromedia Dreamweaver? Someone please tell me good and free alternatives to Macromedia Dreamweaver. It would be better if most of the the features are similar but that is not the main point. So just tell me free alternatives to Dreamweaver.
Look at NVU (http://net2.com/nvu/). It is a free HTML WYSIWYG editor.
