In Dreamweaver, editing a CSS style is just as easy as applying one. The CSS Styles panel (see Figure 2-10)
displays all the current styles??”both internal and external??”with detailed characteristics. Double-click any
style to modify it. Moreover, defined CSS rules can easily be moved within the style sheet or to another one
with a simple drag-and-drop action.

The CSS Styles panel is your one-stop shop to create, apply, and modify styles, whether from an embedded or external
style sheet.
CSS has become the standard approach to Web design, and it pervades every aspect of Dreamweaver. CSS
styles can be applied??”and created??”right from the Property inspector. Dreamweaver properly renders the
more advanced CSS properties, such as float and fixed background, so that designers can truly concentrate
on the look of a site rather than hassling with code hacks.
Addressing accessibility
Accessibility is an issue of great concern to many Web developers. Increasingly, many designers labor under
a mandate to produce accessible sites, especially in consideration of Section 508 of the Federal
Rehabilitation Act. To help designers create accessible pages, Dreamweaver optionally displays additional
attributes for key Web page objects such as tables, forms, images, media, and frames.
