Typographical conventions The following typographical conventions are used in this guide: • Code font indicates HTML tag and attribute names as well as literal text used in examples. • Italic code font indicates replaceable items (sometimes called metasymbols) in code. • Bold roman text indicates text for you to enter verbatim. What's new in Dreamweaver 4 The new features in Dreamweaver 4 enhance HTML editing, make it easier to design pages, improve site and asset management, let you create your own Flash objects, streamline your workflow, improve team collaboration, and allow you to customize and extend Dreamweaver. Enhanced code editing The Dreamweaver toolbar allows you to manage how you view a page-Design view, Code view, or a view of both code and design. The toolbar provides easy access to commonly used features such as Preview in Browser and Design Notes. See "Using the toolbar" on page 78 Code view provides a new way to view HTML source code directly in the Dreamweaver Document window. See "Opening the Code view (or Code inspector)" on page 331. You can also edit non-HTML documents such as JavaScript files and XML files directly in the Dreamweaver Code view. See "Inserting scripts" on page 335. Integrated code editors Dreamweaver now has integrated, state-of-the-art code editors-the Code view and the Code inspector. You can set word wrapping, code indenting, live syntax coloring, and more from the Options menu in either of these editors. See "Setting Code view (or Code inspector) options" on page 333. The Reference panel is a quick reference tool for HTML, JavaScript, and CSS. It provides information about the specific tags you are working with in the Code view (or Code inspector). See "Using the Dreamweaver Reference panel" on page 328. The Code Navigation pop-up menu allows you to select code for JavaScript functions in a page; by using this menu, you can quickly navigate JavaScript code while working in Code view. See "Viewing script functions" on page 337. The JavaScript Debugger lets you debug JavaScript document while in Dreamweaver. For example, you can set breakpoints to control the code you want to examine. See "Debugging JavaScript Code" on page 473. 22 Introduction
