the effect is the same as choosing File > Open and selecting a file. If the specified file is already
open, the window that contains the document comes to the front. The window that contains the
specified file becomes the currently selected document. In Dreamweaver 2, if check in/check out
is enabled, the file is checked out before it opens. In Dreamweaver 4, you must use
“dreamweaver.openDocumentFromSite()” on page 455 to get this behavior.
Note: This function cannot be called from Behavior action or object files because it causes an error.
