Plugin media preview
For a browser to display anything beyond standard format graphics, a plugin is generally required. Plugins
extend the capability of most browsers to show animations, play music, or even explore 3D worlds.
Dreamweaver is one of the first Web authoring tools to enable you to design your Web page with an active
plugin playing the extended file; with all other systems, you have to preview your page in a browser to see
the active content.
The active content feature in Dreamweaver enables the playback of plugins such as Adobe Flash,
Shockwave, and others. However, this feature extends beyond that. Many Web pages are coded with serverside
includes, which traditionally require the page to be viewed through a Web server. Dreamweaver translates
much of the server-side information so that the entire page??”server-side includes and all??”can be
viewed in its entirety at design time.
