Installing or upgrading
This section contains instructions for installing and upgrading HomeSite+ for
Dreamweaver MX. The installation also installs TopStyle 2.1 Lite, its integrated style
sheet editor, unless your computer already has TopStyle version 2.1 or 2.5 installed.
Do not install an earlier version of HomeSite+ for Dreamweaver MX over a later
version; however, later versions are backward-compatible with earlier versions. If
both this version and a previous version are installed on your computer, you can run
either version, but the earlier version will reflect changes made in the current version
to searching, source control and projects, debugging, FTP, RDS, and validation.
HomeSite+ for Dreamweaver MX records any errors that are encountered during the
installation to install.log in the root directory. Please be ready to send this file to
Technical Support if you need help with the installation.
