DREAMWEAVER FTP TUTORIAL

II. Setup your connection: Editing files

 

From the main page in Dreamweaver, click on the Dreamweaver Site link under the Create New heading.

 

This will open the Site Definition window. On the first page, enter the name of your Web site and click the Next button.

 

You will then be given the option to use a server technology. If you are building an HTML/Javascript only site, you can select the No option. If you are planning on using ColdFusion, you will want to select Yes. The Georgetown University Web servers do not support other server-side languages like ASP or PHP. Click on the Next button to continue.

 

Select the "Edit local copies on my machine, then upload to server when ready" option. Also select a directory on your PC where your files will be stored. Click on the Next button to continue. If you are utilizing ColdFusion you should also select the "Edit local copies on my machine, then upload to server when ready" option. However, if you have ColdFusion server installed on your PC, you may select the "Edit directly on server using local network" option.
