Operation Manual

To the top
Adobe Business Catalyst is a hosted application that replaces traditional desktop tools with one, central platform for web designers. The
application works hand-in-hand with Dreamweaver, and lets you build everything from basic data-driven websites to powerful online stores. See
http://www.adobe.com/go/business_catalyst_get_extension_en.
CSS enhancements
CSS Disable/Enable
CSS Disable/Enable lets you disable and re-enable CSS properties directly from the CSS Styles panel. Disabling a CSS property simply
comments out the specified property without actually deleting it. See Disable/Enable CSS.
CSS Inspection
Inspect mode lets you visually display the CSS box model properties—including padding, border, and margin—in detail without reading code or
requiring a separate third-party utility such as Firebug. See Inspect CSS in Live view.
CSS starter layouts
Dreamweaver CS5 includes updated and simplified CSS starter layouts. The complex descendent selectors from the CS4 layouts have been
removed and replaced with simplified, easy-to-understand classes. See Create a page with a CSS layout.
Dynamically-Related Files
The Dynamically-Related Files feature lets you discover all of the external files and scripts necessary to assemble PHP-based Content
Management System (CMS) pages, and displays their filenames in the Related Files toolbar. By default Dreamweaver supports file discovery for
the Wordpress, Drupal, and Joomla! CMS frameworks. See Open Dynamically-Related Files.
Live view navigation
Live view navigation activates links in Live view, allowing you to interact with server-side applications and dynamic data. The feature also allows
you to enter a URL to inspect pages served from a live web server and edit pages you have browsed to if they exist in one of your locally defined
sites. See Previewing pages in Dreamweaver.
PHP custom class code hinting
PHP custom class code hinting displays the proper syntax for PHP functions, objects, and constants, helping you type more accurate code. Code
hinting also works with your own custom functions and classes, as well as third-party frameworks, such as the Zend framework.
Simplified site setup
The newly redesigned Site Definition dialog box (now the Site Setup dialog box) makes it easier to set up a local Dreamweaver site so that you
can start building web pages right away. The remote server category lets you specify your remote and testing servers in one view. See Set up a
local version of your site and Connect to a remote server.
Site-specific code hints
The Site-specific code hints feature lets you customize your coding environment when working with third-party PHP libraries and CMS frameworks
such as WordPress, Drupal, Joomla!, or other frameworks. Theme files for blogs and other custom PHP files and directories can be included or
excluded as sources for code-hints. See Site-specific code hints.
Subversion support enhancements
Dreamweaver CS5 expands its support for Subversion, allowing you to move, copy, and delete files locally, and then synchronize changes with
your remote SVN repository. The new Revert command allows you to quickly correct tree conflicts or rollback to a previous version of a file.
Additionally, a new extension allows you to specify which version of Subversion you would like to work with on a given project. See Use
Subversion (SVN) to get and check in files.
