Copying the sample files

If you haven't already done so, copy the sample files from the Dreamweaver 

application folder to a folder on your hard disk.

To copy the sample files:

1.

Create a new folder called local_sites in your user folder on your hard 

disk.

For example, create one of the following folders:

I

C:\Documents and Settings\your_user_name\My 

Documents\local_sites (Windows)

I

/Users/your_user_name/Documents/local_sites (Macintosh).

NO

On the Macintosh, there's a folder called Sites already in your user folder. 

TE

Don't use that Sites folder as your local folder; the Sites folder is where 

you place your pages to make them publicly accessible when you're using 

the Macintosh as a web server.

2.

Locate the cafe_townsend folder in the Dreamweaver application folder 

on your hard disk.

If you installed Dreamweaver to its default location, the path to the 

folder is as follows:

I

In Windows: C:\Program Files\Macromedia\Dreamweaver 

8\Tutorial_assets\cafe_townsend\

I

On the Macintosh: Macintosh HD/Applications/Macromedia 

Dreamweaver 8/Tutorial_assets/cafe_townsend

3.

Copy the cafe_townsend folder into the local_sites folder. 

The cafe_townsend folder is the folder that you will use as the root 

folder (main folder) for your Dreamweaver site.

After you copy the cafe_townsend folder, define the folder as a 

Dreamweaver local folder.
