Dreamweaver offers a flexible environment for working with a variety of web documents. In addition to HTML documents, you can create and open a variety of text-based documents, including ColdFusion Markup Language (CFML), ASP, JavaScript, and Cascading Style Sheets (CSS). Source code files, such as Visual Basic, .NET, C#, and Java, are also supported.

Dreamweaver provides several options for creating a new document. You can create any of the following:

• A new blank document or template

• A document based on one of the predesigned page layouts that comes with Dreamweaver, including over 30 CSS-based page layouts

• A document based on one of your existing templates

  You can also set document preferences. For example, if you typically work with one type of document, you can set it as the default document type for new pages you create.

  You can easily define document properties, such as meta tags, document title, and background colors, and several other page properties in either Design view or Code view.
