Setting Up Pages - Adobe GOLIVE CS2 User Manual

Setting up pages

Setting up pages
Before or after you lay out text and objects on your web pages, you can set up titles, margins, and backgrounds for
pages, and a window size that you want your page layouts to fit within. You can add hidden instructions for web
browsers about each document by dragging elements and scripts into the head sections (for example, keywords that
are used by search engines to find your page).
As you work in the document window, you can set options in the View palette to show or hide certain screen
elements that are hidden on pages in the browser, such as line break symbols and comments. You can also use the
View palette to set up a profile for previewing a browser simulation of the page layout on a different platform.
Once your page is set up, you can use it as the starting point for other new pages by saving it as stationery or a page
template. When you're looking at your pages in navigation view or links view, you can select an option in the Display
tab in the View palette to view them either by page title or by file name.

To change the page title
Do one of the following:
• Select the default page title Untitled Page in the Title section of the document window, and type your new title.
• Click the Show Page Properties icon in the upper right corner of the document window and enter the new title in
the Page tab of the Page Inspector.
• Select the page in the Files tab of the site window, navigation view, or links view, and enter the new title in the Page
tab of the File Inspector.
When you create a new blank page (a new HTML or XHTML document), it is automatically given a title—"Untitled
Page. " Web browsers display page titles in their title bar and use the titles to label a viewer's bookmarks or favorites.
Web browsers and Internet search engines use these titles, along with keywords, to identify content in your pages.
You can create a custom page title on a blank page and set a preference to use that page for creating new pages.

To add a reminder to change the title for new pages
Choose Edit > Preferences (Windows) or GoLive > Preferences (Mac OS), select Modules on the left side of the
Preferences dialog box, scroll down to Extend Scripts on the right side, select SetTitle, and click OK. Then restart the
GoLive application.
When you save a page, GoLive automatically displays the Set Title dialog box if the page title is blank or contains the
words "Welcome to Adobe GoLive, " "Welcome to GoLive CyberStudio, " or "untitled. "
