Previewing pages

Last updated 3/28/2012

Edit the Live View Page in a New Tab Lets you open new tabs for site documents you browse to using the Browser

Navigation toolbar or the Follow Link(s) feature. You must browse to the document first, then select Edit the Live View

Page in a New Tab to create a new tab for it.

Follow Link Makes the next link you click in Live View active. Alternatively you can Control-click a link in Live view

to make it active.

Follow Links Continuously

Makes links in Live View continuously active until you disable them again, or close the page.

Automatically Sync Remote Files Automatically syncs the local and remote file when you click the Refresh icon in the

Browser Navigation toolbar. Dreamweaver puts your file to the server before refreshing so that both files are in sync.

Use Testing Server for Document Source Used mainly by dynamic pages (such as ColdFusion pages), and selected by

default for dynamic pages. When this option is selected, Dreamweaver uses the version of the file on the site’s testing

server as the source for the Live view display.

Use Local Files for Document Links The default setting for non-dynamic sites. When this option is selected for

dynamic sites that use a testing server, Dreamweaver uses the local versions of files that are linked to the document

(for example, CSS and JavaScript files), instead of the files on the testing server. You can then make local changes to

related files so that you can see how they look before putting them to the testing server. If this option is deselected,

Dreamweaver uses the testing server versions of related files.

HTTP Request Settings Takes you to an advanced settings dialog box where you can enter values for displaying live

data. For more information, click the Help button in the dialog box.
