Behaviors: Hands-On

For this hands-on exercise we are going to use a little of what we learned in Managing A Site class because we're going to edit a template instead of an individual page.

1. Open your level-3 page template file.
   
   
2. Delete the first navigational graphic in the nav bar at the top of the page.
   
   
3. Replace the nav graphic with a mouseover navigational graphic.
   
   
4. Repeat steps 2 and 3 with the other three navigational graphics.
   
   
5. Save your template and observe Dreamweaver making the proper changes to all pages where the template was applied.

Now let's use a behavior to open a link in a new window.

1. Open a page on your site and find appropriate text to create an external link that opens in a new window.
   
   
2. Highlight the text and add the null link javascript code to the link area in the properties inspector.
   
   
3. Highlight the link text and choose New Browser Window from the Add Behavior menu.
   
   
4. Type in the web address for your external link, specify window size, toolbars and other options.
   
   
5. Save your page and test your external link in a browser window.
