Samuel Johnson, 1777

The Ugly Duckling Transformed

Believe it or not, this is the same basic CSS layout as created by Dreamweaver, but with the addition of some images and changes to the background colours.

Chapter 5 of The Essential Guide to Dreamweaver CS4 with CSS, Ajax, and PHP shows you how create this design.
Chapter 6 shows how to insert and style the Spry menu. (In this example only three links are active: Home, Attractions | London Eye, and History | Houses of Parliament.)
Chapter 12 shows you how to convert the menu into a PHP include file.
Chapter 13 shows how to convert it into a Dreamweaver template.
