Results of exporting

When you export or copy HTML from Fireworks, the following is generated so that your
Fireworks image can be re-created on a web page:
The HTML code necessary to reassemble sliced images and any JavaScript code if the
document contains interactive elements. Fireworks HTML contains links to the exported
images and sets the web page background color to the canvas color.
One or more image files, depending on how many slices are in your document and how
many states you include in buttons.
A file called spacer.gif, if necessary. Spacer.gif is a transparent, 1-pixel-by-1-pixel GIF that
Fireworks uses to fix spacing problems when sliced images are reassembled in an HTML
table. You can choose whether Fireworks exports a spacer. For more information, see
"Setting HTML export options" on page
If your Fireworks document contains pop-up menus, and you export those pop-up
menus, the following files are exported: mm_css_menu.js and a .css file containing the
CSS pop-up menu code. If your pop-up menus contain submenus, an arrows.gif file is
also exported.
If you export or copy HTML to Macromedia Dreamweaver, notes files that facilitate the
integration between Fireworks and Dreamweaver. These files have an .mno extension.

Exporting Fireworks HTML

Fireworks lets you export HTML in Generic, Dreamweaver, FrontPage, and Adobe
formats. Generic HTML works in most HTML editors. Exporting Fireworks HTML
generates an HTML file and the associated image files in a location you specify.
Fireworks also exports HTML when you export to CSS layers and to Macromedia
Director. For more information about CSS layers, see
on page
364. For more about Director, see
on page
405.
The export method of getting Fireworks HTML into other applications is ideal if you are
working in a team environment. Exporting an HTML file divides the workflow into segments
so that one person can perform a task in one application, and another can take over at a later
time using another application.
