Note: Macromedia Dreamweaver shares a tight integration with Fireworks. Fireworks handles the
export of HTML Dreamweaver differently than that of other HTML editors. If you are exporting
Fireworks HTML to Dreamweaver, follow these instructions, but for additional application-specific
notes, also see "Working with Macromedia Dreamweaver MX 2004" in Working with Other
Applications on the Fireworks Support Center at www.macromedia.com/support/fireworks/.
