CHAPTER 11
Tag Libraries and Editors
Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004 users can use tag editors to insert new tags, edit existing
tags, and access reference information about tags. Dreamweaver comes with editors for the
following languages: HTML, ASP.Net, CFML, JRun, and JSP. You can customize tag editors that
come with Dreamweaver, and you can create new tag editors. You can also add new tags to the
tag libraries.
The Tag Chooser uses information that is stored in the tag libraries to let Dreamweaver users view
available tags and select them to use in the active document.
Dreamweaver stores information about each tag, including all tag attributes, in a set of subfolders
that reside in the Configuration/TagLibraries folder. The tag editor and Tag Chooser functions
use the information that is stored in this folder when manipulating and editing tags. Before you
can create custom tag editors, you should understand the tag library structure.
